Hello everyone, I wanted to get a different perspective on this as I am unsure.
I am trying to find the mother of a woman named Harriet Rebecca Rump born in 1846 - Watton, Norfolk.
With a few census', her marriage certificate and baptism I have found her parents are William Rump and a Mary Ann.
There children all together are:
William Henry Rump - 1832, Lambeth, Surrey
Charlotte Winifred Rump -1834, Lambeth, Surrey
Frederick Dawson Rump - 1840, Lambeth, Surrey
Louisa Rump - 1842, Lambeth, Surrey
Harriet Rebecca Rump - 1846, Watton, Norfolk
Alfred Arthur Charles Rump - 1850, Watton, Norfolk
Emily Rump - 1854, Lambeth, Surrey
Her father William Rump I have at 1914, Watton, Norfolk. It looks like he was a gardener and then a coachman in later life.
Now for the mother. I am on Ancestry and when I started, it recommended to me a Mary Ann Blanchflower as the mother based on that being the same on others trees. However when I looked I realised that no one had any sources for the secondname, in fact they all ended with her - no parents for her. I couldn't find anything for that name either, no marriage certificate.
When I had a look around google, I found someones personal ancestry for the 'Blaker Family' through their youngest Emily Rump. It also noted that William Rump married a Mary Ann Blanchflower but said her maiden name was Ainger.
I have found a marriage between a William Blanchflower and Mary Ann Ainger but it's in 1833 norfolk. A year after the birth of William Rump and Mary Ann's first child. So now I'm not really sure of that being the name.
I have found a marriage between a William Rump and Mary Ann Lockley in 1829, 20 mins from lambeth, surrey. It seems the more likely bet. But I do think it's odd that everyone else has Blanchflower.
So what do you think? Should I go with Lockley or am I missing something else?
Thanks for reading.
