Births Jun 1864
MAYO Caroline Jane Holborn 1b 497

The reason there is no marriage to Henry Harris is that she was already married :-)

and ordinary people seldom got divorced at that time, they just moved on

of the couples who married in 1884, Edwards probably married Sheppard:
John and Amy E Edwards in Hackney in 1891

so Mayo married Blanchard but I can't trace him ...

whoever made that tree just took the 'estimated marriage date' / years married from the 1911 census and did not bother finding a real marriage

edit, I expect this is her death

I did say not necessarily accurate Mike*

I have been searching with just the term 1838 +/- 5 occupation butcher with no name and I have not found him.

The marriage to Caroline Jane Mayo is quoted on those trees as being 1884 but not seeing a Henry Harris


Marriages Dec 1884
Blanchard Edward Guildford 2a 84
Edwards John Guildford 2a 84
Mayo Caroline Guildford 2a 84
Sheppard Amy Elizabeth Guildford 2a 84

Appears that Jane may not have died. Supposedly there would have been a divorce? Nice to have confirmation re marriage

Thanks

He had a brother

Henry born 7 Apr 1848 Lambeth to Jabez Harris and Margaret Duggin. In 1851/61 he is with parents in Lambeth Surrey. In 1911 he is in Islington Workhouse and shown as widowed and a butcher.
I think in 1881 he is living in Clerkenwell with wife Jane and children. It appears that he may have married in 1874 to Jane Bransford nee Devonald. I can not find either Henry nor Jane in 1891 or 1901. Can someone have a look please?
