how do you solve a problem like maria ?

[rosherville]

Hi,

Could not find any other Rucks so could be Luck badly written!

Tittle, Tattle or Tuttle ?  I`d go for Tuttleby as the most likely, it would have been written down by the vicar as he heard it, many surname spellings changed that way.

I`ve got the following as some of the children, maybe more.

Harriett    1811
James 1816
John  1819
Sarah Maria 1821
Thomas 1823
George  1825
Maria  1827
Elizabeth Ann  1830
Henry  1833

I`ve attached an 1892 cutting of a Northfleet Luck, sad.

Yes, I`d like to see photo of Henry James.

Is Anna still in the Northfleet area ?

Hi,

Yes accessed Ancestry, there are several relating to Maria but they are contradictory, her birth on some is 1799, and James has different parents, confusing.

What name is your tree under ?

Regards

ps. try pic at lower resolution

Hi,

Havn`t found yours yet, but several others with Maria in.

They give birth as late 1780s in Northfleet but I think this is assuming she was born there and subtracting 73 from 1861, no evidence as such.

Back to the name, I`ve scanned the names in the 19c and there are no Tittlebess, 2 Tattlebees (N. Essex) and a few dozen Tuttlebees (N. Essex).  This all points to her being Tuttlebee,  I`ll follow this up further.

I`ve seen James as being born in Cobham, Northfleet and Swanscombe, again needs checking.

Any luck with pic yet ?  We`re not allowed to give contact details on this site but I`ll try another way then you could send a jpg. direct.

Regards
