Searching for Henrietta Knight Little

[little alison]

Hello again after a long while! I have a 'brick wall'.

I and a Canadian relative, John, have been searching for Henrietta Knight, born in Dublin on the 28th September 1868. She married Alexander Little on the 16th November 1891, from Thorncastle Street.  (We know  about her six children.)

She's last seen by us in the 1901 Dublin Census, living in Cambridge Place, 
with her husband and 4 children.
Her last child seems to be William Thomas, b 8 Sept 1910 at 36 Pembroke Cottages, Ringsend.
Neither of the parents is in the 1911 census.
We have not found her after this, although Alexander may be in the Dublin voter lists  in 1913.

I have a little more info, but this is the basics.....
She is NOT the 'Henrietta Louise' found later in a rather posher area of Dublin.

Did she die? Did she emigrate, did she remarry - or both?
No result from searches worldwide.
...........Any ideas or info?

What happened to the six children - where do you have them in later life?
I see Isabella died young but where did the others go?

Hello Heywood.
They aren't in the 1911 Dublin census.

I don't know where to go from here!

Could either of these be a possibility for their deaths from Scotland People

Hello Heywood.
They aren't in the 1911 Dublin census.

I don't know where to go from here!

Hopefully Ladyhawk has found some information for you.

However, you say you know about her six children. That is what I was asking. Where are they in later life?

[little alison]

Wow, thank you! I will pass this on to John in Canada.

It feels right - Shettleston is already known to me as a glass connection.
(I can't at the moment access this myself, Ancestry isn't coming up with it.)
In 1901 Alexander is a 'bottle macker' (sic) and he should have had relatives there...

This is great. Thank you - Alison
