Eleanor Walton and George Harding
« on: Wednesday 01 August 07 06:51 BST (UK) »
I am trying to establish where Eleanor Walton, who married George Harding in 1850 in Wymondham area, went.  I have a hunch it was Uppingham as I have found a death of Eleanor Harding at Uppingham in 1870 and the age is listed at 41.  Knowing she was born in 1828, this puts me in the right ballpark.  I was hoping a census between 1850 and 1870 might confirm my suspicions and provide any children from the marriage.  Any clues are greatly appreciated.

Hi Karen and wozzle,

It would appear the death you found is correct because Wing is in the registration district of Uppingham

Thanks so much.  This clears up a mystery and leads me in the right direction as I have found the children in 1881 living with an uncle in Yorkshire.  George must have died between the 2 census periods.  Many thanks to all of you.
