My great-aunt Amy Mary Newton was born in 1870 in Hughenden, Buckinghamshire.
Here she is in the next two census:
1871 census Amy age 1, with her parents John, Labourer, age 37, Mary, Lacemaker, age 31, sisters and brothers, Elizabeth, Lacemaker, age 10, Ann, age 8, William, age 6, Herbert, age 3, living in Kingshill, Hughenden; parents and Elizabeth born Princes Risborough, all others born in Hughenden.
1881 census Amy Mary, age 11, with her parents John, Labourer, age 50, Mary, Lacemaker, age 43, both born Princes Risborough, brothers and sister, William Jesse, Labourer, age 16, Herbert, Labourer, age 13, Rose Adelaid, age 8, Isaac, age 3, Benjamin, age 10 months, all children born in Hughenden, living in Boss Lane, Hughenden.
She married John Brown Haig 28 October 1890 at Coldstream, Berwickshire, Scotland. She may be with him in 1891 in Scotland but have not yet found them there, nor anywhere else. In 1901 they were at 25 Zion Place in Margate with a seven-year-old son: John was a saddler and harness maker, age 32, born Scotland, Amy was age 30, born Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, and Andrew was age 7, born Croydon, Surrey.
In 1911 John Brown Haig, occupation: Fancy Leather And Athletic Goods, age 41, born Kelso, Rothburyshire, was with his "wife" Katie Mary Haig, age 35, born London, "married 10 years", at 2 Bravington Road, Paddington.
I cannot find his real wife, my great-aunt Amy, anywhere in 1911.
Amy died in 1939, John died in 1943, and his other "wife" in 1953.
My great-uncle Isaac Newton, known as Ike, went to live in Canada, so I have been told, in, maybe, the early 1900s, and I wondered if she might have gone to visit him for a while; but I can find neither :confused::)
Thank you.
