The Hardy Family of Heanor.

Hi, again, Sue.
Peter (Chamberlain) has very recently come up with info. concerning where Henry and Dinah Hardy/Wragg had their marriage registered at Basford in 1907. But as for knowing where she lived before 1907, well, it's like looking through a never-ending 1891 Census. I'm still trawling through it slowly, but as you know, it covers seemingly thousands of miles. Peter also discovered when Henry's first wife, Betsey Hardy/Saxton died. This was in September of 1903. So that's a couple of mysteries cleared up, up to a point.

I'm also seaching for Dinah's Mother (as in the photgraph). I do know her name began with the letter 'E', as it's pinned to the top of her dress in the photograph.
In the 1881 Census, 'E' could have been aged around 13 to 16 years of age. If you do find anything along those lines, it would be a tremendous break-through. I think the 'E' could well have stood for 'Elizabeth', as Dinah's first daughter was named Mary Elizabeth. Still tenuous though i know, but better than nothing? But any information from any Censuses would be greatfully received.

Take care on those trips to the B.T. It's a strange World out there - especially that area.
Azzabuv.
