That's the one Gins, there are other threads on the Finch family :-)

Thanks Dea, this makes sense!!

She probably didn't know where or when she was born!

This looks like her

Susannah Overhead Finch - address Lower Cornwall St (this might be where the confusion stems from)

Record Type:Baptism

Baptism Date:21 Jun 1829

Baptism Place:St George in the East, Tower Hamlets, England

Father:Henry Finch Occ: Carpenter

Mother: Martha Mary Finch

Register Type:Parish Registers

Thanks Dea !

It looks like her. The address is the same for 1901 - 4, Leyton Street, Southampton.

2 of her children have te correct names. (ages are all over the place, but essentially correct).

As for being born in Padstow, Cornwall, this is a complete mystery. She was definitely born in Stepney, East London / Middlesex. (Unless this was a mistake?).

Thanks again, Dea, for your help.......

Is this her?

Dea x

Looking for Susannah Overhead Hooker (Nee Finch).

Born 1829 Stepney, Middlesex, married Stephen Hooker in 1860, Catherington district (Southampton area) 1860.

I have her in 1861/71/81 & 1901/1911 Censuses... But not 1891 !

I presume she is in same area (Around Southampton), but where?

She was a widow by 1881.

Any clues? Thanks.......
