Other marriages:

HUTTON, Herbert Richard

At the age of 15, she was using the name Anna and working in Norwich as a Shop Assistant for Garlands Drapers in the Market Place. The 1881 Census suggests that she and twelve other young female assistants, were living in (probably above) the large store.

At the age of 17 years, she becomes pregnant and gives birth in September 1883 to a baby girl  named Ethel May Blunderfield. The birth isn't registerd but over 2 years later, she has the child baptised. No father's name is given and the mother's name is stated as Emma - perhaps the clerk or Vicar, misheard the name Anna and wrote down Emma (or was she trying to hide her identity). Sadly, Ethel May died in January 1887 from Scarlet Fever. The death certificate records the mother's name as Anna Blunderfield a Shop Assistant. It is not known if her parents had any knowledge of this child.

Charlotte received a legacy from her Uncle George Blunderfield (B0501), Gentleman of Cawston, when his Will was proved in February 1887

A few months later she is pregnant again and gives birth in January 1888, this time to a baby boy she named Francis Blunderfield. Her parents were certainly aware on this occasion as they brought him up and were clearly complicit in hiding the childs true origins. In the 1891 and 1901 censuses Francis is living with Charlotte's parents and recorded as Nephew (it should have been Grandson). By the time the 1911 census was taken, Charlotte's parents were both dead and she is Head of the household, aged 44 years and still single. Francis, now a young man of 23 years, is recorded as her Brother!

Charlotte married Herbert Hutton in October 1911 and Francis married Ivy Belton a few months later.

In the marriage register, the space for Francis's father's name is blank - did he ever know who his father was or indeed that Charlotte was his mother? As there are no descendants on his line, therefore no DNA possibilities, we will never know.
