I am searching for the parents of Anna/Hannah Windsor BRIDGES born Middlesex approx. 1821.
-
Yeah ......... I'm looking for BRIDGES (or BRIGGS) about that time in Holborn .. ,which of course, is in MDX.
Do you have any other 1st names?

They are the only names I have.

Is it possible that the Windsor part of the name is the mothers maiden name, even one of the grand mothers of the person you ask about?
I have a Great grand father who had a middle name which was his grand mothers maiden name. An extra thought: the D in Windsor might not always appear. The spelling for this name often changes.

Do you know who she married?

Hi Jennifer, I believe she married Frederick Samuel Browse FULL possibly late 1840s, his previous wife was Mary Ann BURNELL married in 1843 in Dover. Thank you. Yogi.

This marriage certificate should give her father's name:

Full, Frederick Samuel Browes, Totnes, vol. 9: 601
Bridges, Anna Winsor, Totnes, vol. 9: 601

She seems to play around a lot with her age if this is her married to Frederick SB.
CAN NOT FIND HER IN 1851?
1861-Hannah aged 37 born St.Pancras
1871 Annie aged 50 Middlessex
1881 Hannah 54 London Middx
1891 Hannah 63 London Parish not known
Frederick dies 1892
They seem to live in Portsea Hampshire all their married life.
Only bapt and 1841 census I could find Hannah Bridges born 11/4/1821 - parents John & Tamar Bridges occ. Weaver add. Brick Lane.

Hello Yogi
May I ask if you have discovered any further mention of the name "Winsor" (or other spellings of)?
The suggestion from the info posted, is that your Anna has links to the west country and somewhere along her ancestry she is related to a Winsor.
My reason for asking; My Winsor family has roots in the west country in particular the Newton Abbot area and later the London area. Could your Winsor relation be related to mine?, perhaps a cousin, a niece or grand daughter etc?
I know its a long shot, but some times a long shot or even a shot in the dark does pay off. It has for me twice before (subsequent checks were made to prove the links)
