Humphrey Gregory Pridden
Was a BAD MAN and came from a family of rogues. This HGP is the one born 1814 (all the others are his father, son, grandson etc)
His long suffering wife died just after the census in 1851 and he's up in Bradford by 1861. Looking at the LMA records, banns are called for a second marriage to Harriet Henriette Glesson in 1852. Not only can I find no trace of this marriage (was that why he fled to Bradford?!) but I can't find Harriet either. Can anyone spot her in 1851? |

Maybe she was the mum of this baby and has stolen her daughter's extra forename?

Maybe she married George Rawson instead? Oh, I suppose this is the daughter, though?

Harriet H G's mum,Harriet, was a widow in 1851:
HO107; Piece: 1543; Folio: 101; Page: 3 with a lot of little children, so she might have thought about remarrying.

Hi Smithy
Welcome to the site! You are just so lucky that Harriet did think the better of her decision to marry HGP. |
