A little help with a recent find that had thrown me a little.
I was looking for some of the wife's family and I came across the 1861 census With Eliza Hillman on
Ancestry - Eliza Hillman 1861.
There is Eliza Hillman originally from Brighton which I knew (Need more on her but that'll be later. once I sorted out this)
There is Susannah Hillman ... hold on a moment ... FISK? a Widow? Who is FISK?
And a son Henry Fisk ?
OK I am now pretty darn confuzzled.
When Susannah was married to Francis Henry Hill in 1862 she was listed on the marriage cert as Susannah Hillman.
I'm not sure I've got my head around this but to my doofus brain I'm guessing.
Alexander Hillman married Eliza.
They had Susannah in 1839 in Lambeth.
Susannah married someone called Fisk.
Susannah had Henry
Susannah became a widow.
Susannah Married Francis Henry Hill in 1862 and went on to live life until she dies in Cane Hill Asylum, Coulsdon.
How does this sound ?
