I am looking for the parents and/or birth information for Charlotte Harley of Northampton, England.

Question

Charlotte Harley married Thomas Honor in Bletchley, Buckinghamshire in 1827, but census returns all have her place of birth as Northampton. I have searched online records for Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire and not found a record I could confidently say is hers.My only thought is that she was previously married and her husband died soon after the wedding so her marriage to Thomas Honor was her second, but I can find no evidence of that either.

Does the combined might of WikiTree have any other suggestions?

Answer 1

https://www.gro.gov.uk gives the the mother's maiden name of Thomas and Charlotte's daughter Charlotte born 1839 as Harley so Charlotte hadn't been married before.

On https://www.freereg.org.uk there are some baptisms for some Harley's in Northampton who are children of James Harley and Charlotte Robinson who married in Spratton, Northamptonshire on 23rd November 1794. Those baptisms are for Ann in 1795, George in 1802, Susannah in 1806 and William in 1811 so there is a gap where Charlotte could possibly fit in.

Comments

Thank you Samantha. I had completely forgotten about checking the mother's maiden name in a registered birth.

Your suggestion of Charlotte being a daughter of James and Charlotte certainly seems to fit.

Answer 2

Only marriage I could find that might fit
