Could this be Charles's first wife? If so, they must have separated. Certainly I can't see a death for her before he appears with Ethelinda, as well as not being able to find a Willingale/ Harris marriage..

She's listed as unmarried here - of course might be someone completely different . . . ..

If anyone has access to the Genealogist then the image is available on that site. As it's non-conformist you might get Hannah Mills parents names recorded.

EDIT - lots of trees on Ancestry with him in - married and died Australia

And on that note, I've just seen the time - no lunch yet and the dog needs to go out!!

I found Ethelinda Harris aged 75 years in 1891 living with her Niece Charlotte (nee Cuttriss) Dodd & husband Robert (a customs officer) at 6 Hengage Lane St Katherine Cree London living on her own means.
I assumed she did not remarry.

William Snowling Stearn was the brother of Ethelinda, I have been searching for sometime to find out where the name Snowling came from.
Finding Elizabeth Ann Snowling being the aunt of Ethelinda makes me think this is the connection but where? is it with her husband William Snowling?

Just for the record, (though not relevant to the search for the link between Elizabeth Ann and Ethelinda) here's the marriage of Charles Willingale and Kezia -:

Kezia Jones Hooper

Name: Kezia Jones Hooper
Spouse: Charles Whellingale
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 4 Aug 1834

Register Type: Parish Register


And probably Kezia in 1901 (widow, formerly needlewoman):

this is probably about the William Snowling you think may have married Elizabeth Ann:

http://www.suffolkcamra.co.uk/pubs/brewery/333

Yes Ethelinda's parents were Joseph Stearn & Hannah Mills I have all of this information thanks, including the convictions of the 3 sons (who were all transported to Australia ) & father who died in Melton 10/12/ 1840 Hannah died 17/11/1827.
I to have looked for Jane's parents hoping it to be Snowling.
I have Joseph & Hannah's marriage & death certificates I also have Ethelinda & Edward Harris marriage certificate William Snowling was a witness for Ethelinda
Thank you for the Auction information I did not have this
Yes it is me on Curiousfox

I think Elizabeth Ann who married William Snowling was Elizabeth Ann Mills born 21/10/1780 Quay Meeting House Independent Woodbridge Bapt 21/10/1780 parents James Mills & Elizabeth Caroline ?
Ethelinda's mother was a Hannah Mills born abt 1790 Suffolk died 7/11/1827 Melton Suffolk.
There must be a connection here somewhere?
