hi debbi
you say in a previous post that your ancestor was rosa ann carrington daughter of thomas
who lived in brightlingsea but came from great bromley. i don't think you have the
right family.
in the 1901 census there is the following for thomas and family:
41 chapel road, brightlingsea
thomas carrington head married 63 carpenter & joiner great bromley
charlotte carrington wife married 63 brightlingsea
charlotte e carrington daughter single 38 brightlingsea
rosa a carrington daughter single 35 brightlingsea
rosa a carrington daughter of thomas was single in 1901 and using her maiden name married
william clarence harmer in 1909 and she died in 1951 with the name of harmer.
in 1901 census there is this for samuel and another rosa a:
great clacton, essex:
samuel pulham head 37 carpenter & joiner suffolk shadbrook
rosa a wife 36 essex gt clacton
samuel ? son 14 ? essex gt clacton
henry j(?) son 11 "
rosa a dau 7 "
william ? son 4 "
edwin son 3 "
mary j(?) dau 1 "
so rosa, daughter of thomas can't be the same as the one married to samuel.
There were actually two rosa carringtons born in a similar area at a very similar time.
freebmd has:
births dec 1864
carrington rosa ann lexden 4a 259
carrington rosanna tendring 4a 217
one of them married samuel pulham, the other the daughter of thomas of brightlingsea.
hope this helps....do you know which you're descended from?
