I seem to remember there is a way to find ALL children born to a certain woman by putting in the maiden name that would have appeared on the b/cert. I know it works cos i did it for my grandmother between 1920 and 1933 to find all her children. However, it doesnt seem to work for the period 1845 - 1863. Am i doing something wrong or does it not work that far back?

Marion, I sometimes forget the Familysearch site, so will try that next for Harriet's children.
