Hi,
Am wondering if anyone has come across a family named HANLEY (or HANDLEY, HENLEY) - the father's name John Hanley, occ Commercial Traveller or Hawker? His daughter Mary Ann Hanley was born in 1851 in Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland, and married in 1871 in Portsea, Hampshire, to John Hughes, occ Bootcloser. On the 1871 Census in Portsea, Mary Ann's surname is written as Henley. I am unable to find her family on the 1861 Census in England or Scotland. One Mary Hanley & family show up in 1851 in Edinburgh that may possibly be them, but no father is shown as present. The mother gives her occupation as "Hawker's wife" from Lincolnshire. Wonder if they could possibly be Travellers? Anyone heard of them? Juniper
