Narrative and Notes

Hannah was a nurse, and later a single mother of a son, Robert. No birth registration or parish record confirming that she was his birth mother has been identified to date, but in 1861, an H.G. was staying at the Union House in Hinckley with R.G., aged 1.

Hannah was listed as being a nurse, aged 13, on the 1851 Census, so her being destitute with an illegitimate child in 1861 strongly suggests that she was a victim of some unwanted (or at least ill-advised) male attention, possibly from the father of one of her young charges.

Her mother remarried in 1854, and by 1871 Hannah and Robert were living with Joseph and Elizabeth BRANT.

Hannah continued to work as a servant and in 1877, aged 40, married Edward BEABY, a gardener. They didn't have any further children.
