Wow! Thank you very much! It appears that Emma then went on and married to a Mr Sutton. Why would Emma's children have her maiden name though?

I am now totally confused - how have we got to this?

Hi Rachel
You've got it the wrong way round for Emma. She was born Emma Sutton, had George who I assume was illegitimate as he seems to be a Sutton, then she has Florence, Louisa and Eveline by James Moody although I cannot find a marriage nor birth registrations for any of the children - there is a baptism on the IGI for Eveline giving her father as James. Whether James died or they just split up I wouldn't know as there is no way of telling which James Moody is the father.

Hi Andy,
Thank you for clearing that point up - I was beginning to get a bit confused. There is a birth reference for Florence and I have ordered that certificate. I'm hoping that it will show me Emma's previous surname. I will keep you posted...

What to do now?
I ordered the birth certificate for William Peart
PEART John William Louth 7a 549
and the names of the parents were not what I was expecting, so this was not the right reference.
I also ordered the certificate for Florence - however, it has her father's name as being William (it should be James) and the mother's maiden name was the same as her married name - Moody.
So, I am stuck. I need to find the right birth reference for William Peart and Florence, as well as the death cerificate for James.

In 1891 William said he was born in Much March, Lincoln. However if you remember I found this for you last year
1881
William Heart Age: 21 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1860 Relation: Pupil Gender: Male Where born: Much Marcle, Hereford, England Civil Parish: Liverpool County/Island: Lancashire Country: England Street address: 22 Hardman St Blind School Education:

Source Citation: Class: RG11; Piece: 3624; Folio: 43; Page: 23; Line: ; GSU roll: 1341868.
so looking further 1871
William Peart Age: 12 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1859 Relation: Son Mother's Name: Mary Gender: Male Where born: Much Marcle, Herefordshire, England Civil Parish: Much Marcle Ecclesiastical parish: Ross Town: Much Marcle County/Island: Herefordshire Country: England Registration district: Ledbury Sub-registration district: Yarkhill ED, institution, or vessel: 8 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 41 Household Members: Name Age Alice Peart 7 Emma Peart 13 George Peart 19 James Peart 15 Louisa Peart 5 Mary Peart 45 widow Thomas Peart 17 William Peart 12 Source Citation: Class: RG10; Piece: 2684; Folio: 20; Page: 8; GSU roll: 835339.
William is noted as being nearly blind from birth as is his mother, Mary, and brother, George.
1861
William Peart Age: 2 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1859 Relation: Son Father's Name: Joseph Mother's Name: Mary A Gender: Male Where born: M Marcle, Herefordshire, England Civil Parish: Much Marcle County/Island: Herefordshire Country: England Registration district: Ledbury Sub-registration district: Yarkhill ED, institution, or vessel: 8 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 4 Household Members: Name Age Emma Peart 4 George Peart 9 James Peart 5 Joseph Peart 43 Mary A Peart 36 Samuel Peart 3 Mo Thomas Peart 7 William Peart 2 Source Citation: Class: RG9; Piece: 1811; Folio: 90; Page: 2; GSU roll: 542872.
so William's birth should be
William Peart Year of Registration: 1859 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar District: Ledbury County: Herefordshire, Hereford and Worcester, Worcestershire Volume: 6a Page: 430
I wonder if this is Eveline's birth
Eveline Moody Year of Registration: 1870 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep District: Liverpool (1837-1934) County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 195
and Louisa
Louisa Moody Year of Registration: 1868 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun District: Liverpool (1837-1934) County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 233
Florence???
Florence Sutton Year of Registration: 1864 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun District: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 522

Hi Andy,
Thank you for your reply. I had not remembered to look at the birth reference for William which you found last year - just focused on the birth reference in this thread - oops!
I will request William's birth certificate - using the reference you have found, and Louisa's birth certificate.
It would appear that blindness ran in the family, as William's first 2 children were blind from birth, so William, his brother, his mother and his first 2 children were blind from birth.
Thank you once again for your help and patience - it is appreciated.
Regards
Rachel
