The children of George Archer and Mary Anne Steward
« on: Wednesday 07 January 15 14:38 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I am trying to trace the children of George Archer (1823-1907) and Mary Anne Steward (1836-1886), who lived in Hornchurch in Essex. As far as I am aware, they had 10 children: George (b1861), Rhoda (b1863), Harry (b1865), Charlotte (b1867), Frank (b1868), William (b1869), Eliza (b1871), Alice (b1874), John (b1877) and Annie (b1878).

I know that George married Harriet Gilbert in 1887, Rhoda married William Daniels in 1892, Harry married Ellen Brown in 1902 and Frank married Emily Roberts in 1891. But have no idea who the other six children married.

Nor do I have any idea when William, Eliza, Alice, John and Annie died. I can find none of these in the 1911 census. Eliza disappears from the census record after 1881.

This looks good, as her father George was a gardener in the 1891 census. Many thanks.
