Esther COWMEADOW born 1862 in Goodrich

by glenwil, Friday, June 26, 2009, 19:10 (5702 days ago) @ Paul Andrews

hi there
yes this is my greatgrandmother, I also found her on 1881 census working
at watkins farm as a servant, she had a son my grandfather george henry in 1882
in ross workhouse, the birth certificate does not give a father name on it, but I think maybe his father could have been george henry watkins from the watkins farm she was working on,it is a bit of a coinsidence dont you think.
I have then found her on 1891 census as mrs esther harding living as a housekeeper to a william hill and also george as housekeepers son, I think there is something in this as my father and his brother seem to have been called harding and not cowmeadow some of the time, but I cant find a marriage for her to a harding. I cant find anymore about her after this time.
thanks glenwil

Im sorry but I have checked the marriage to a gibbard
