I am looking for any information about the origins of:
Harriet Sporton
Born: Abt 1824 Gibraltar
Married:1853 to John Hutcheson/Aitcheson in Wigtownshire.
Died: 1899 Barnhill Poor House, Glasgow.
Father: Joseph Sporton, occupation was a Soldier.
Mother: Agnes Thomson.
She appears on the census records as living in Stranraer, Wigntownshire in 1861 and St Quivox and Newton On Ayr, Ayrshire in 1871.
I have seen her maiden name spelt as Sporton, Sportin, Sportain or Sporting and her first name as Herriot, Harriet or Herriet.
Just to make things worse her marriage name has been listed as Aitcheson, Aitchison, Hutcheson or Hutchison.
I would like to know more about her father, the soldier Joseph Sporton, where was he married? What Regiment was he in? Is there a birth record for his daughter? Is there a marriage record for him with his wife? Where are they on census records?
