Hello Rodney

Not really the information you are looking for but I have HARDING's on my
Paternal Grandmothers side. They came originally from the Eriswell and
Mildenhall areas of Suffolk, and William is certainly well used in that
family.

I can see no connect at the moment with yours, but it may be another sibling
from the James which mine seem to originate from.

Hope it helps your search.

Regards
Kay

Subject: [ENG-CAMS] Seeking William Harding born Haddenham? about 1802

Hello Everybody,

I am new to this list and I am seeking details of a birth/baptism for a
William Harding who in 1861 census in Shoreditch has his place of birth as
Ely.
In 1851 census he was also in Shoreditch and has his place of birth as
Haddenham.
His birth appears to have been about 1802.
By occupation he was a tailor and my wife is descended from him and his
daughter Mary Ann Harding, born in London and who married Nevil Hanes Danes
Sheepwash in Shoreditch.
Amongst William Harding's children were daughters named Sophia and Mary Ann
both born in London.

I am hoping somebody on this list is also descended from the Harding family
of Haddenham or that there is somebody on the list who can please identify
William.

I note that the Hugh Wallis website has baptisms for Haddenham for the
period in which William would be expected to be baptised but the names
listed are only for females so it appears not all the register has been
transcribed.

During the period in question one couple had seven daughters baptised at
Haddenham between 1796 and 1808, that couple being William and Ann
Harding/Harden.
It appears likely that the mother was Mary Ann Sperry who married a William
Harding at Haddenham in 1794.
Amongst the daughters were Sophia and Mary Ann and those names appear above
in the London family.

In 1841 and 1851 census for Haddenham there is a Henry Harding, whose birth
appears to have been about 1812 and his occupation was shown as a tailor,
again the same as William in London.
Henry appears to have been the one married at Haddenham in 1834 to Mary Ann
Horster.

I suspect that Henry and William were sons of the couple who married at
Haddenham in 1794 and I hope somebody is able to confirm my suspicions
please.

Additionally I note that at Haddenham in 1822 a William Harding married
Sarah Leavett and I suspect he might be my wife's William and that she later
died and he remarried.
When in London his wife was Mary Ann (maiden name unknown) but whom on
census returns was born at Leominster in Herefordshire.
It might be a co-incidence that in Herefordshire in 1832 there was a burial
for a Sarah Harding for whom as yet I have no further information.

Although this is not a short message I have tried to keep it simple and if
anybody can answer the queries regarding William I shall be eternally
grateful.

Thank you, Rod Whale, Andover, Hampshire.
