LOOK UP REQUEST - Harker (West Witton)
« on: Tuesday 01 February 11 19:46 GMT (UK) »
Need a little clarification:-

I have Edith Harker b1828 and Edward Graham bMay 1828 married 20/03/1854 all in West Witton
1911 census shows brother Robert Harker 85yrs living with her.

Pretty sure his parents are Robert Harker & Ann

Also have:-
Ann Harker bSept 1820 and William graham bDec 1820 married 24/11/1849

Her parents are Robert & Ann and I have her siblings as Robert abt 1826 and Eden born 6/09/1828 again - all West Witton
1851 census shows
Eden harker 22yrs visitor and house servant with William Graham and Ann

I believe Edith & Eden are one and the same person. can anyone verify/ disprove this???

Yes I noticed that on the IGI for their children.

Why I was asking because I wanted to check on Edward. In 1851 there is an Edward with brother William and his wife Ann down as born Swinithwaite aged 23 Farmer of 95 acres. Staying with them is a visitor Eden Ha(c)(r)ker aged 22 born West Witton

Added: sorry I see you put that on your 1st post. It was Edward that caught my eye.

Yes I saw that - there are other Harkers married to Grahams and Eden & Edward married in 1854 so am pretty sure is the same one and they have just merged eden/ edith along the way.
