Father George Poynter b1818 Long Sutton Hants

I have not found a 1881 census with Henry nor Hannah or James.

I cant find Stephen with Mary Ann on the 81 census.

There seems to be another Stephen, wife Jane. Also a Florence crops up with this family?

So this is the father and daughter? I need to post some of this info for my own sake, even if you have it!

I was trying to find the relationship to Stephen Poynter ( Anne's father) As I can't find a brother Henry nor can I find his death.

Thank you for finding his marriage. This must have been a second marriage or a very late one. I was looking for it much earlier
Anne

It says Annie is the niece, so Henry is her uncle!

What is it you need re Henry....I'm confused!

Ginny

I thought I had got to the end of this but I have hit another brick wall

Anne Poynter ( Annie Pointer) is correct she is living with Henry Pointer Hannah and James in 1891. In 1991 she is visiting Gunn Lane Strood. Who are Henry & Hannah?. I assume he is an Uncle but can't find him on any census. Any Ideas?

Strood is in the Medway Towns but there are no names on the 1990 census that I recognise.

Anne

Regarding Anne, She was still living at home at Station Row Rainham Kent, at her sister's death, which seem odd. If there was an epidemic.

thank you for finding Anne. I can't remember my grandmother ever talking about her family, no wonder they were well dispersed.My Grandmother, Lizzie was brought up as an only child.

Anne

According to the family Bible, Mary Ann Rowell Married Stephen Poynter ( Also spelt Pointer) and had 7 Children. When she died 12/10/1886 the children were brought up by her sisters.The 1891 census shows

Fanny b 29/6/1875 living with her sister Frances Shaw
Florence b 25/10/1876 living with her father
Alice b 30/6/1878 - d 7/5/1881
Anne ( Annie) b 11/3/1879 ???
Agnes b 4/12/1881 ????
Lizzie b 12/3/1884 living with her sister Annie Burling
Michael b 13/3/1886 living with her sister Frances Shaw

I am trying to find out what happened to Anne & Agnes

Was there an epidemic in 1881 as the 1881 census shows Fanny was already living with her Aunt

Thanks any help
Anne
