William Homden-Eliza Parker marriage- Dartford (?) 1861(?)
« on: Saturday 24 March 07 08:05 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the marriage of my Gt (x3) grandparents.

William Homden was born c1835 in Chiddingstone/Tonbridge, his wife was born 1842 in Dartford. 

On 1851 census Eliza is in Dartford Workhouse.  Can't find William. (don't yet know who his parents were).

Can't find either of them on 1861,which is also the year they had their first child (Eliza). So am thinking they may have married in 1861.

Any help in locating either of them 1851 & before/ & their marriage much appreciated.

Hi Mark  :D

I think I have spotted them in 1861 ('Hornden') - William born Charlton - RG9/467 120 41

Do you have access?  :)

(Little Eliza Ann was registered June quarter 1861 - Dartford 2a 282)

Hi Tati & Ian,

Thank you for the quick response.

Yes - just had a look and it does look like that's them - They were living in the same street in later cenuses. I now have 3 different places of birth for william, and yet another spelling of the surname.  ???

Thanks again. Will see if I can find him in 1851 with birthplace of Charlton. or 1841

Ian - looking at the image, I think they are actually enumerated as Hornden, what do you think?  :)

Hi Tati,

Looking at the image I think it's HOMDEN, if you look at the R in grainger or Lodger it is different to the RN/M in Homden.

What do you think

Tati

Have had another look, and it could be either, although leaning more to HOM when you see the M in Samuel, William and Emma christian names in others on the same page.

Well, I can't see the 'm' :-X but I do trust you are both right, especially as Eliza's birth was registered as Homden.  :D

Can't see the marriage here however
