Re: Clara Gill b abt 1859
1861 Pedmore Road Dudley:-
MARIA GILL Head Widow 44 yrs
SARAH GILL Daughter Unmarried 23 yrs
EMMA GILL Daughter Unmarried 14 yrs
SOPHIA GILL Daughter 12 yrs
JOHN GILL Son 10 yrs
WILLIAM GILL Son 7 yrs
CLARA GILL Granddaughter 3 yrs
I suppose one of Maria's daughters Married James Hingley
Can't find a Hingley/Gill Marriage, maybe they just pretended to be Married
Maybe worth finding James Hingley Shopkeeper in the Dudley Directories, sometimes if you work backwards, the sons take over from their fathers, that would help work out who he was.

To return to the original question I think that Sarah Gill was her mother and that James Hingley the reputed father (out of wedlock!) -- would be interesting to see what the birth certificate says/ baptism?

There are two possible ones 1858
GILL Clara Dudley Dudley Register Office DUD/070/215
GILL Clara Dudley Dudley Register Office DUD/073/118
The other one must be the servant that I found in 1881!
