COMPLETED Harriet Barralet

[SRD]

I have a Harriet Barralet b 1820 (I think), married 1844 (under the name of Barralett) to one of four possibilities.
Marriages Sep 1844 (>99%)
Barralett Harriet Hackney 3 157
Cooper William Hackney 3 157
Francis Jabez Hackney 3 157
Secker George Hackney 3 157
Toussaint George William Hackney 3 157

With my resources I can't move any further forward but it is understood that she had a large family.

Can anyone firstly identify which man she married, which will give me a great step up the ladder, and secondly look up subsequent censuses to give me some ideas about her whereabouts and her offspring.
Adresses and reference numbers would be appreciated.

Thanks.

She married George Secker on the 19th August 1844 in West Hackney, London.

She died of Cholera on the 8th September 1849 so you will not find them together on a census.

She had two sons. Jame Secker born 1845 in Hackney

George Secker born 22nd November 1847 at St Luke in Middlesex.

Harriet's widower, George, married Mary Ann Simmons and they had three children.

Anything else you need to know?

[SRD]

Thanks very much. So much for the gossip about her having a large family.

And yes, there are a couple of other things, where did you get the info (references etc.)? And how come you're such a clever b****r?

[grangers14]

Do you know any of the childrens names?
That could well be another Harriet if you are not certain of her age.

There is a Secker family tree on Ancestry.

They say Harriet was born abt 1820 in Whitechapel.

This would be her in 1841

Clara is Clara Maria.

Walter is just plain Walter.

I was wondering what the accent would be like?

Londoner father. Yorkshire mother. Born a Brummie!

George kicked the bucket in 1895.

[SRD]

That's brilliant, thanks very much. Is the 1881 actually as SEEKER?

I think this can be archived now.
