Charlotte (Heather) Foster and Henry Foster....
« on: Sunday 07 June 15 16:14 BST (UK) »
Charlotte Heather married Henry Foster on January 19, 1884. They had 3 Children : William (oldest)
Daisy (middle child --sent to Canada in 1907 via Barnardo's ) and Katherine (youngest child)--I am working on my husband's family tree and would like to know any information about Charlotte, Henry, William, and Katherine, and any other family members -- parents, grandparents, uncles, cousins, etc.--if anyone knows anything about this or can help me in any way it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for this information ...it confirms some of the information that I have...
I am looking to find information for his parents, grandparents, and any other ancestors that he may have. Also, for any information on her parents, grandparents, and any other ancestors that she may have, as well as information as to what happened to William and Katherine...
I have a copy of their marriage record, a copy of Daisy's birth record--but do not know what his parents names are.

When and where was Daisy born?
I a having trouble finding the family on 1891 or 1901 censuses - in order to get birthplaces for Henry Foster and Charlotte Heather.

Do you know what happenend to the family which caused Daisy to be shipped off under the Home Children scheme?

Looking for Charlotte Heather in previous censuses, working on the age from her marriage cert (ie bn around 1863) there are two possibles.  But one seems to be with parents in 1871 and dad is Anthiny, so that rules that one out.
Other one is in Hambledon workhouse in 1871, age 7, bn Chiddingford

Also in the workhouse in 1871 is a 3 yr old Mary Heather - maybe a sibling of the Charlotte?

Possible death for her Dad - though he would have been quite an old father if this was him -

Death
Jul/Aug/Sep 1868
Hambledon
Ref 2a 86
James Heather age 68
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Daisy was sent to Canada through Barnardo's Home Child organization --as it would be safer for her.
Charlotte was born on the 18 of June -1863 to James Heather and Jane Fuller ( I can't find any information about them). Henry was born about 1854. Katherine was born in 1905 or 1906 -apparently not the daughter of Henry Foster--(don't have information on who the father is). William was quite a bit older than Daisy...not sure when he was born...
