There's also another marriage in 1862 but I think that 1854 one looks the better option.

Yes, that'll be her. The father is Benjamin, a cabinet maker.

Who did she marry?

Marcus Report 20 Aug 2011 21:55

I have just found that my 2xgreat grandfather had an older sister Elizabeth Hesse b1815, Bishopsgate, London.

In 1841 she is described as a servant. In 1851 she is living with her brother, Benjamin Hesse, at 5, West Street, Hackney.

I cannot find her after that in any census, or even marriage/death records.

Can anyony please help?

Thanks,

Marcus
