Hi All, I'm new to this list but not to genealogy,i have come across some scandal within my Lalor family. In 1843 Walter was born to Michael & Eliza[nee Simions] Lalor,Michael was a policeman & born in Ireland. A year before Michael became a dad to Walter he became a dad to Henry,but the mother was not Eliza!!! Henry was born in Wappenbury & the mother was Hannah Malin & she was not married to Henry's father Michael,she was also born in Wappenbury & she was age 19 or 20 when she had Henry. Since Henry was born there & also the exciting news on Hannah nothing concrete has been found on either of them,did Hannah marry & her new husband take on Henry,did he die,did she abandon him? Questions that i can't answer,but is there someone that can? Thanks. Kaz. "Genealogy -disturbing the dead,and irritating the living" Still looking for; Ashford- Moar,Canning,Field,Flagg,Gardner,Gardiner,Hanny, Hayes,Houghton,Jolly,Keeley,Lalor,Marlow,McGill,Mould,Matthews,Phillips, Rogers,Rowlands,Treasize, and Twissell

In FreeBMD there is a marriage of a Hannah Malin in the December quarter 1850 in the Warwick Registration District. There are four prospective grooms, Beal, Jaggard, Satchwell and Taplin (which is odd as there are only three brides, something misplaced somewhere). In the 1851 census there is an entry Head: BEAL, Richard Neighbors 325999 Name Relationship Mar Age Sex Occupation Birthplace Richard BEAL Head M 31 M Ag Lab Warmington-War Hannah BEAL Wife M 30 F --- Wappenbury-War Henry BEAL Son - 9 M Scholar Wappenbury-War Address: Pepper Alley, --- Census Place: Kenilworth Kenilworth, Warwickshire PRO Reference: HO/107/2073 Folio: 116 Page: 3 FHL Film: 0087339 If the birth/marriage is after July 1837 this is a fairly straightforward way to find someone: look in FreeBMD, and then look in the next census. It would have been interesting if you had told us how you know that Michael Lalor was Henry's father. If it was on a birth certificate, at that time the father, if not married to the mother, could be named as father without his consent, and possibly without his knowledge. Later he could be named only if he consented. A woman could, and some did, name a man they hoped to marry, whether he was the father or not. And some women genuinely did not know who the father was. Hope this helps you follow up this family.
