Nicola Report 8 May 2011 17:07

I am looking for children born to a Harriett Russell formerly Harriett Edgington from Aston Birmingham from 1905 onwards, i believe that she had 12-13 children in total including a couple of sets of twins, i know that 1 of each set of twins died before the age of 1 years, but there is no death record for a Kathleen E Russell born 1914, i know that 2 of her children survived into adult life and was just wondering if any more did. I would be gratefull for any information. Thanks.

Not having much luck finding them in 1911.
Can only see 2 sets of twins after 1911 (not lots of children).
Do you know the names of any children born before 1911?
Thanks

Nicky, I think that couple may be this marriage:

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Jun 1905 (>99%)
>>HODGES Harriet Louisa Solihull 6d 1048
>>RUSSELL Harry Solihull 6d 1048
STANTON Eleanor Clara Solihull 6d 1048

Especially as there is a Hodges relative.

PM from Nicola:

"Hi, thanks for that but i know that this is the wrong couple."

Have explained that she needs to respond on here.

The marriage I posted was to eliminate the 1911 that Nicky posted.

You need to give us some more details - her birth year and Charles' occupation would help.

Nicola Report 7 Jun 2011 18:06

Harrietts year of birth was around 1886 we believe she lied on her marraige certificate about her age so this year of birth is approx, there was a son born in 1910 called John and the 2 sets of twins born in 1912 and 1914 but everything else about her is a mystery.
