Hello.
just to complete rhis post Ellen died also from tuberculosis, informant Workhouse master so Cornelius is definately absent for both the death of hisvwife and daughter. All a very sad story.
Despite being married in Lancing in 1884, Harriet was baptised just up the road in Sussex, they certainly moved around a bit.
my only remaining lead is to find some time to go down to Kew one day and look at the muster roles for a possible military career in the Irish dragoons.
May have to park this mystery.
