Emma Elizabeth Green surname confusion

[Cloabella12]

ok, 1891 census gives Elizabeth's place of birth as Isabella Street. Possible baptism 18 June 1837 St John the Evangelist Lambeth Elizabeth daughter of Frederick William Howard, frame maker, & Mary Ann of Isabella Street.

Other baptisms to Frederick (William) & Mary Ann Howard at St John the Evangelist, Lambeth
29 Sep 1839 Emma - Frederick joiner Glovers Hatch
21 Nov 1841 David Frederick b. 20 Oct 1841- Frederick carver & gilder Glovers Hatch
26 Nov 1843  Eleanor Esther born 24 Oct - Frederick carver Glovers Hatch
at the workhouse St Mary Lambeth
6 June 1847 Frederick William - Frederick picture frame maker 7 Bond Place, Cornwall Road.
No Howards at 7 Bond Place in 1851.

Birth regs for David Fredrick & Elinor Esther have mother's maiden name of Rackett
And William Austin Lucas 1851 mmn Rackett

Also there is a baptism
Portsea 4 Dec 1808 Mary Ann daughter of John & Elizabeth Rackett

 

Thank you so much!! This is all so helpful. I am none the wiser why their surnames have continuously changed but i at least have all of this to work with now.

Thanks,

Chloe

Haven't found Frederick William Howard in later records as yet. If he was still alive, Mary Ann wouldn't have been free to marry Frederick Lucas, so you get the mixture of surnames on some entries. Not sure why Smith in 1861.

The child from 1856 was registered as Alonzo Rackett Lucas dec qtr 1856 St Luke vol 1b pg 508 mmn Rackett. Haven't spotted him later either.

oh good find! At least they tried! 

He's Frederick J on 1891 census and Frederick James on 1891 death reg. I see on the 1851 banns, there's a note of 'poor'. Wonder if this means they didn't need to pay?

[Daisypetal]

I can't see where it says poor, maybe we are looking at different images


I think this could be Mary Ann RACKETT, it's only a mile from Isabella Street where Elizabeth was born.

Looks like she was surprising everyone even before her various 'marriages'

Oh thank you this is great! I’m trying to get my head around this. No wonder I couldn’t find anyone with the changing names. Yes I would love to know what they were telling him!
