AnnCardiff, I'm new to this? Are those names potential ancestors of my old rogue Reuben? |

Graham I, like most of the members on here, love research and love finding the answer to a problem. We still haven't found your Hannah's mother but I think I have found her grand parents if she really was the niece as mentioned in 1851. Hannah could have been base born and she made up a fathers name for her marriage. I'll keep looking to see what else I can find. |

no idea if they are potential ancestors Graham - just put them on here in case at some time you get further back and they match up :-) |

Hannah, Elizabeth 3 and George Riddle (spelt Riddell) were living with Edwin and Mary Dwight in 1861. Hannah was unmarried. Mary Dwight was Mary Final Eli's sister and she married Edwin Dwight in 1852. Edwin died in the workhouse in 1904 and Mary died in 1889. |

its quite possible that George was born pre marriage, may or may not be Eli's child |

Penny, George was born first quarter 1861. I have a record in the Amersham Register for March qtr 1861, 3a 344, from FreeBMD |

Graham I looked at that Amersham birth for George and rejected it because when the 1861 census was taken on 07/04/1861 George was said to be four months but he could have been registered a little late or he wasn't quite four months so I think you are probably right. |

Wendy, amongst my scribblings (I'm learning fast to record my sources ) I have Hannah aged 16 with Eliza 19, Jane 13, all straw plaiters and a Sophia 7 living in Chesham. I think his will be The Elizabeth in the Amersham death register. It ,may be that I searched UKCENSUSONLINE and just made a note of Riddles who were straw plaiters in Chesham but not necessarily the same household. |

Another thought, but no proof, is that Reuben Saunders of Dinton (currently 17 miles from Chesham) did father Hannah in 1834 before his marriage in 1836 to Anne Perridge. |

Anything is possible, but I think he is the Cholesbury one which is part of Chesham and right next to Hawridge. Also in that 1851 census he is in Hendon. Can we establish if Dinton Reuben is in Dinton in 1851? |

Yes ne was in Dinton in 1851 and is always referred to a s SANDERS, so I don't think he is our man. |

Original says 1867 buried 16/04/1867. Abode says Red Hill. Several entries say Red Hill, maybe a hospital or work house. |
