Harriet CHAMBERS and sister E D chambers. Greasley
« on: Monday 06 July 20 16:04 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am looking for the family of Harriet chambers. I cannot find her birth/baptism registration or in the 1841 census.

Her death certificate says she was 77 when she died in 1903, but on the different censuses it says she was born in 1828 or 1826 in Greasley or Kimberley

I have located her on the 1851 census onwards.  born 1828. living in Alfreton Derbyshire with John Severn (married 1849 in Alfreton) on the 1851 census only her initial H is mentioned along with E D chambers as sister aged 8. After 1851 i cannot find E D chambers anywhere..

The only other information i have is on the marriage certificate she is 21 or 27 and spinster. Harriets father is William Chambers. witnesses John goulder, Celina goulder.

I cannot find Harriet or E D?? chambers before this. I hope someone can help.

Thanks!

have you looked for a female birth for Chambers in Greasley around 1843 that could be her?

Basford seems to be the right registration district and there is an Eliza born Dec 1843 with mothers name Chambers.

However could she be aged 1 and not 8 do you think  :-\  either way quite an age gap for a sister.

What about this family in 1841 Greasley?

William Chambers 35
Mary 35
Moses 12
Harriott 10
Matilda 8
Susanna 5
William 2
Phoebe 2 months

In 1851 William is a coal miner and Harriott is not at home.

Thank you for the reply. I did come across this but i wasnt sure if it was the correct match. i am not sure what E D could stand for and thought maybe E D was phoebe, but in 1851 this same family is still together in nottinghamshire but E D is with harriet and john severn in alfreton derbyshire so i am unsure if E D was daughter why she wasnt in nottingham too?

William Chambers occupation was also collier on marriage certificate.
 

many thanks

Thank you, this is interesting. This must be some relation, could it be Harriets sister?
