Can't find anything in Cambridgeshire. Could she have moved?

HANNAH SAYWELL
Marriages:
Spouse: JAMES NORMAN Family
Marriage: 26 JAN 1832 Saint Mary, Leicester, Leicester, England

Hello Margaret,
is the son named James?...
1841, looks to have him down as Taywell, with wife Charlotte, in Croxton.

Chris :)

I have found quite the opposite - and correctly they should remarry in their previous married name

Hi, Margaret,

I have found that when re-marrying, most women used their maiden name and not the name from their first marriage. And it depends on who gave the information to the Clerk who wrote out the document, whether Hannah is Ann or not. She may have been called Ann by her second husband.

Maybe, she didn't tell her new husband about the child??? Or, maybe, she waited until the child was old enough to do his own thing?

It might be best to try to get the paperwork to include or exclude the options.

Hope you find them.
Lindy.

Goodness! Not only have I lost Gt.Gt.Gt.Grandma but her son has vanished too.

I thought I'd double check the Census for her son (in the hope that she may be with him). He only appears on the 1881 Census (aged 70) and living with his own son.

Where on earth could they both have been for the preceeding 70 yrs?

What started off as a 'niggling loose end' has now become another 'brick wall'.

Shirley, yes she did have a child, (just the one) my Gt.Gt.Grandfather - the same year her husband died. I would presume that she did remarry but I can't find a record of it.

Lindy, I too found the marriage of Ann Cullip in 1827 but Hannah (was then a Saywell).

Thankyou both for your time.

Hi, Margaret,

Could this be what you are looking for?

Ann Cullip - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Marriage: 28 JUN 1827 Hardwick, Cambridge, England

She married Robert Newman.

Lindy

she was only a young woman when her hubby died chances are she remarried.

As you sre descended from her take it she had a child by williamhave you looked for him/her on any census

My 3 x Gt.Grandmother, Hannah Cullip (born c 1785) married William Saywell in Croxton, Cambs., on 30.1.1809. If my research is correct, William died in 1811.

I can't find a re-marriage for Hannah Saywell or a Death. Nor can I find her on the Census.

She must have gone somewhere - anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,

M. Steer
