Born Mary Tinklin/g ?1866 in Tupsley Hereford
Turned up in Derby 1881 census as Mary D Johnson along with mother Louisa Johnson a widow and Brother Abraham Charles Johnson DoB 1860
In 1886 Mary D married a Thomas Orgil I think he passed away and she then married again a Theaore Hitchcock DoB 1862, this second marriage is on hearsay so not sure, so can anyone tell me, ???
Was there any children from this or these marriages and anyone tell me where she was in 1939 registry in Derby please

If she was born Tinklin - how did her surname become Johnson by 1881?
Brothers birth registered as Tinklin March qtr 1861 - mmn was Evans
Mary Diana Tinklin b March qtr 1866 - mmn Evans
-
Correct Carole
Louisa had placed her children in the workhouse by 1870 as her husband Charles Tinklin had died,
She supposedly married a Charles Johnson who also died by the time she was living in Derby, I think she was living over the sticks with a young Charles Johnson who left her when arriving in Derby,
A very complicated family
-
Mary Diana married as Johnson - Thomas Orgill (2xL) He may have died 1888
There are 2 Theodore Hitchcock marriages in Derby - 1882 & 1896. No matching spouse to Mary
-
Is this her son :-\
ORGILL, JOHN WILLIAM mmn JOHNSON
GRO Reference: 1887 Sept Quarter in DERBY Volume 07B Page 523

Deaths Sep qtr 1888

you could be right after 1881 census I lost track I think she was married 1886 in Derby
-
We already know she married Orgill in 1886 but if he died 1888 - where was Mary in 1891?
