William Joseph HADDEN or HADDON

[mickawinn]

I believe the above was born around 1844 in Huntingdon and I have him in a second marriage to Mary Ann BENNEY (nee UREN) in 1880 in Islington. I cannot trace his baptism or his first marriage, he had a daughter born in Middlesborough so it seems he moved around quite a bit. Can anyone throw any light on his life?

On marriage to Mary Ann Benney on 9 Aug 1880 he said he was aged 28, a widower, and he named his father as William Hadden, a labourer. He may not have told the truth about his age as in 1891 he was 46!

[bedfordshire boy]

There's a birth of Mary Jane Hadden in Dec 1874 in Stockton registration district, which included Middlesbrough, vol 10a page 51, which might be the daughter, who was plain Mary age 16 in 1891. Buy the birth cert to get mother's name.

Can I just say, in my defence, that I really don't like the 1881 census I posted?!

But names and dates seem to match?!

So I posted it as a maybe; a curiosity!!

Christenings;

ELIZA ANN Hadden, 28 April 1867
MARY JANE Hadden, 09 March 1868
Parents JOSEPH/JANE

Death Reg for a MARY JANE Hadden, Dec 1870, Stockton, 10a 59, age 2
So fits with Christening.

Looking for A Death Reg for a JANE Hadden between 1871-1881 in Durham there is this;
Sept 1879, Haddan,  Jane Ann,  Lanchester, 10a 148, age 34 (birth c 1845)
Not positive as age is 3yrs out from 1871 Census info.
