Just in case . . . . .

(Lewis B married Hannah H)
There appear to be a small number of George HACKETT births around 1864 "in the area".

You don't suppose . . . . . ? ( a male Hackett and Emma Seelig ? )

 Ok I am on it Ray I will look at that today ...just in case ....but also William Bentley son of Lewis s was the same age as Emma so who knows. DNA would be an answer if it were around at this time LOL

 Checking my notes Hannah Hackett was the daughter of William Hackett and Lydia I will see if there are any more siblings CHEERS  This information is INCORRECT I believe she is the daughter of William and Ann as an EMMA HACKET one T had a christening at Armitage 7th May 1815..


 Can I say at this point there are many many children born in this area with the name HACKETT

Was that not the George Seeley birth mentioned earlier?

Is George's birth the one in Lichfield Reg. as George SEELEY June Qtr 1863? From Staffs BMD mmn is also SEELEY.

 My geography is not good Lichfield had no meaning to me....... coupled with the wrong spelling of the surname ...it only came to ring a bell when in the entry it had the name Rugeley a place name mentioned as the birth place in the 1901 census. Another big thank you to Maureen you really have come up with some unusual information. Thank you aghadowey for pointing it out I am just so stoked to have a definite on his birth Thanks guys   

Just checked through my notes and I see I got a negative response for this information from BMD  ....  just redone this search using Lichfield without the T that I used and I now have his birth at LICHFIELD ...I am going to check this out to see exactly where it is

   Oh what an amazing link I have never heard of this Lichfield before ..it covers many of the areas that are talked about in the Seelig documents. I have added it to my favourites as I am sure it will become a much used reference for me in the future. All this information just goes to make the researching easier thank you for your post very kind

  I have had a huge boost in the truth about this families origins from a family member. I am soon to receive copies of photos that were given to her in a wooden box by her late father. I know you will understand that this will be amazing for my children and grandchildren to share. I will keep you updated and I again thank you for all your help on this post it has certainly given me an insight into the families past. Sooooooo excited
