Harriet Matthews, born 1863 Birmingham. Daughter of George Matthews and Harriet Carpenter of Lye, Stourbridge, Worcs. She married and emigrated to Western Australia. I would like her married name so that I can try and trace her family in Australia also her death. Harriet was my great aunt. I can't find any marriage registration for her. I would also like to hear from her descendants.
