Henry Scott 1828

[bobtonks]

Henry Scott was baptised 28th Sept 1828 in Waterbeach parents John & Rosa

in 1841 Henry was living in Waterbeach. Can't find him in 1851.

In 1861 Henry was living in Brighton with his wife Ann 1828 (born Cottenham)

In 1871/81/91 Henry was living in Brighton with his wife Lydia 1828 (born Cottenham)

In 1901 Henry & Lydia living in Impington. Lydia died 1902. !911 Henry living Impington

I guess Ann & Lydia are the same person. Can anyone see the marriage?

Ann's death ?

I think Ann in 1861 has been wrongly transcribed if he was with Lydia in 51/71.

Thank you. I was looking towards Brighton for the answers. FindMyPast has Henry marrying a Lydia Ward and/or Lydia Hart in 1849.

You have probably seen this already but everything matches Lydia Hart:

Ward is a transcription error for Hart.

Lydia Hart
Birth year: 1826
Baptism date: 1838
Residence: Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, England
Father: Thomas Hart
Mother: Alice

Thomas Hart married Alice Warren on 15th October 1821 in Cottenham

I hadn't seen it thank you.

In 1871 Henry & Lydia Scott were living in Brighton with their "niece" Sarah Ann Fowler.

Can anyone see the connection between the Scotts and Sarah Ann ?

[DCB]

Sarah Ann Fowler was the daughter of Thomas Fowler and Eliza Hart, baptised in Cottenham in 1855.

She married Obadiah Maskell in Brighton in 1878. In 1881, both born in Cottenham.

This is Sarah's birth record but I can't find her parents' marriage:

FOWLER, SARAH  ANN mmn HART 
GRO Reference: 1852 J Quarter in CHESTERTON UNION Volume 03B Page 435

Eliza was the daughter of Thomas and Alice, born 1828 and baptised in Cottenham on 18 Mar 1838.
