Harter, sometimes recorded as Harper, Absalom
« on: Thursday 07 November 24 14:25 GMT (UK) »
Born Earlestown , Lancs 1849.

Second husband to my GGmother Lisette Heaney (Bn Rowley). Absalom appears to have criminal conviction(s). Trail goes cold 1915 for him.

Anyone able to have a peek for me. (Two eyes are better than one). No trace 1921 census, or 1939. Also noted staffordshire and birmingham
