Subject:  Re Harriet Whiter

Hi David
This the Whiter connection in my tree:

Charlotte Norford married 7th March 1853 at St John the Baptist,Shoreditch
to James Whiter (abt 1831)  born Spitalfields,London

Charlotte is part of my "Cecil" family from the Shoreditch and Bethnal Green area of East London.
I have given you access to my tree for any added info you may be interested in and the added notes in the Extra details area>
Best regards   Val

Charlotte Norford

Hello again,
I have had contact with another member on GR and on going through her tree
I have come across some more 'Whiters'.
I do not know whether they are of interest to you or not.

They start with Charlotte Norford b1832 whom marries James Whiter born circa
1829 Mile End Old Town, London
They have the following children:
Charlotte Whiter ABT 1854
Harriett Whiter ABT 1856 whom married Thomas Clementson
Emma Eliza Whiter ABT 1857
Mary Ann Clara Whiter ABT 1860 Bethnal Green whom married George Charles
Joysey
Ann Whiter ABT 1862
James Whiter ABT 1863
Alfred William Whiter ABT 1865
Alice Celia Whiter Abt 1870 whom married William Joysey

There is no further information on the Whiters as the tree is about the Norfords
and other Ascendents/Descendents based on the Cecil family.

Best wishes
Amanda Cornwell

My links with the Whiters are a bit tenuous.
I actually am only interest in :
The descendents of James Whiter and Charlotte Norford
in so much as Charlotte is the neice of Rachel Norford,
my husbands several time great grandmother!

I have their children as 
Charlotte
Harriett
Emma  Eliza
Mary Ann
Ann
James
Alfred
Alice

and would like to know where THEY were born and who their spouses were.

Charlotte Norford their mother is descended through her maternal side from RABY and CECIL

Colin Whitehed and his family were my first internet links to the Norford family. They had been studying the links back to the Raby family in France (1600) for more than 20 years.
