Looking for a death or census please!
« on: Friday 01 October 10 19:17 BST (UK) »
I have a Harriet Dunn Webb born 1832 in Veryan, Cornwall who married a James Johns in 1851 in Cornwall. The happy couple then moved to Shoreditch to start a family and did not return to Cornwall.
James must have died by 1871 as Harriet is living alone as widow. RG10; Piece: 458; Folio: 31; Page: 4.
1873, Harriet remarries a Charles George Luther and is last seen on the 1881 census. I cannot find a death for her or an 1891 and 1901 census (If she hasnt passed away by this stage!).

Can anyone help trace her please? Thank you!

Hi

This looks like her in 1881

RG11/398/32/5

11. Newton St Shoreditch

Chas Luther     head  45    Bricklayer     Wiltshire
Harriet Luther  wife    49                        Cornwall
Frederick Johns stepson  13  errand boy    Shoreditch

plus 3 lodgers

But there is no sign of her after that so t mo's death registration could well be hers.

Jan

There is another Harriet Luther who was born abt 1834 in Shropshire. In 1891 she was living with her husband John in Shropshire.

The death of Harriet in Herefordshire was Sept quarter 1891 so could be either of them  :( :(

Checking a map of English counties, Herefordshire is next to Shropshire, so I think it might not be your Harriet, more likely to be the Shropshire one.   :(
