Title: Avis (nee Winch) ERRINGTON/HARRINGTON in 1851 census - help find please.
Post by: gazania on Sunday 30 March 14 07:07 BST (UK)
I am unable to find Avis (Winch)Errington/Harrington in the 1851 census.  I have placed this request on the Surrey board as Camberwell, hamlet of Peckham was her last known address in 1841 census.  This what is known:

27 Oct 1782 Avis Winch was baptised in St Giles Camberwell, parents John Winch and Priscilla (Bennet)

28 April 1836 Avis Winch married Robert Errington, widower, St ?Nick..., Deptford, Kent

1841 census: HO 107/1051/7 Lambeth, Camberwell Hamlet of Peckham.
                    Robt Harrington, 80, not born in Co
                    Avis Harrington, 60, born in Co
                    (better eyes than mine deciphered above)

Sep qtr 1843 death: Robert Harrington, Camberwell district
1851 census: neither found
Mar qtr 1858 death: Robert Harrington, Camberwell district

Sep qtr 1859 death: Avis Harrington, Camberwell district.

My direct ancestor, Giles Winch, had a sister, Avis Winch, which is an unusual name.  I would like to find her on the 1851 census to confirm that Avis Harrington is indeed born Peckham/ Camberwell and thus the sister.

Thanks, Gazania

Just to confirm, Gazania - the Robert who married Avis Finch is almost certainly Harrington. Errington looks like a transcription error at the time of their marriage as no Camberwell Robert ERRINGTON fits the bill according to my researches.

Thank you, Roger, for your interest.  And for your information that Harrington not Errington is the surname of interest.

On another family, I have a great aunt by marriage whose maternal relations were likely to be Errington from Scotland.  Are you interested?

Thank you, Gazania

Certainly, Gazania. Scottish ERRINGTONs are pretty thin on the ground and we may be able to help each other. I look forward to the details...

Roger
