Hi, I was hoping that someone could help ,In the 1901 census ,Robert Mallett was living in Tanfield ,He was born in Reedham ,Norfolk and was the half brother of Benjamin Hanton .Has anyone looked into the family history ? and been able to find anything about their mother Susan Mallett who married George Hanton , She was born in 1847 ,married about 1870 and died in 1879.I can only find her living with her grand-mother in Reedham at the age of four ,no mention of parents .
Thanks ,love Daphne

Hi Daphne
Susan and her siblings or cousins are also with her grandmother in Reedham in 1861.
Here is her marriage to George HANTON.
Norfolk Blofield
Sept quarter 1870
Volume 4b Page 357
If you obtain the cert it should provide her father's name and occupation.
kind regards, Arranroots

Thank you Arranroots ,I have requested a copy of the birth certificate for Susan Mallett ,but as I had no page number,and was unsure of the quarter etc, I have reservations about recieving it ,so the other information you have given me will allow me to go a little further ,thank you and regards from Daphne . :-*

I hope the cert arrives OK. This appears to be Susan's birth on freebmd:
1846 December quarter
Blofield Volume 13 Page 22
Hope this helps.
Have you requested an 1851 look-up specifically - that should tie her parents down, with a bit of luck.
kind regards, Arranroots ;)

Hello again,I am going to try and have some time at the Family History Centre in London ,but again thank you Dear Arranroots for your help .there was no snailmail for me today ,so it could be that I have sent the Registry Office off onto the wrong track ,.
Cheers from Daphne

Hello Arranroots ,I recieved the Birth certificate today ,and it only shows a mother, Her name was Harriot Mallett ,that is the spelling on the certificate,but at least I am that little bit further ,so thank you ,regards from Daphne

Had another look at the 1861 census and decided it is worth posting it, to see if you can untangle the generation later!
