Harriet Flowers and Henry Hart: Marriage

Published: March 13, 2007 Last modified: November 14, 2016

Distracted as usual while updating part of my journal I landed on this previous post regarding Harriet HART (née Harriet FLOWERS 1873-Deceased) and Henry HART 1870-Deceased. At the time I could not find a marriage for Harriet HART (née Harriet FLOWERS 1873-Deceased) and Henry HART 1870-Deceased. Today I ran a search on FreeBMD since records are being added all the time and found an entry for a marriage between Henry HART 1870-Deceased and Harriet HART (née Harriet FLOWERS 1873-Deceased). They were married during September 1913 at Sheffield, Yorkshire, England.

This is intriguing. If my records are correct Henry and Harriet would been at least 40 years of age and the two children shown on the England and Wales Census 1901 about 17 and 14 years of age.

Henry HART 1870-Deceased and his son William HART 1897-Deceased are recorded as being born in Norfolk NK (I presume NK is Not Known, though I could be wrong).

I received from 'Judith' this comment to an earlier article:

Hart family Norfolk

"Don't know if this ties into your family anywhere but my 4xgreat grandfather was a bricklayer in the North Walsham area of Norfolk as was his father & grandfather. He was Philip Hart bpt 1787 married to Mary Barber. His granddaughter Sarah Jane Hart (my gg grandmother) moved to County Durham in the 1860's." - Judith

I am intrigued by this so I will add the marriage certificate for Harriet HART (née Harriet FLOWERS 1873-Deceased) and Henry HART 1870-Deceased to my task list.
