Thanks to everyone for your wonderful help - really appreciated

Yes this is the family -Theo is down as a 14 month old grandson and Harriet is 18 so it could be her child or other possiblity is that Mum Caroline had a son who inturn was not living at home on date of census and had left grandson with mum or she had another daughter who was a single mum. I wonder also if Harriet was the mum?

I have located this death
is this Caroline's husband??
Deaths Mar 1876
A'Court Charles 64 Yeovil 5c 375
Caroline was 58 at time of 1881 census - so would love to find her wedding to find out her maiden name

I note that Theo reverts to Charles

Would all fit but I don't want to make assumptions - if i could find Harriet's dad/Caroline's husband I could then fit him into my a'court forest.

Thanks

Linda

This looks like it could be Harriett & Caroline in the 1871 census.....surname Court minus the 'A'

Saw that 1861 - wonder if Selina died (can't find death record as yet), and if he took up with Caroline (can't find marriage).

is this them in 1851 - ?

perhaps not - wrong age for wife - perhaps another wife !

Looking at the 1861 census image wonder whether wife's name was Letitia rather than Selina?

I think you're right - only took a quick look before

Possible death for Martha?
