Subject: Maria Beckers

No longer using the Susannah, she married Sampson Bird in Epping, Essex.

The entry on the 1891 census says 'Emely Brither' with William and Albert, lived with her brother and sister William Bird and Laura Bird. \this gave me months or trouble finding Emely and in the end I sent for the two boys birth certificates. Emily has used both Beckers and Bird as her maiden name! Still, I got her then!

Susannah and Gerard had a daughter Emily Esther - she married a Britter and had two sons. He died and she then is with another Britter in the 1901 census. They have a son Edward Thomas. This is my grandfather. He lived as Edward Thomas Blake. The family story is that Emily was badly abused by this second Britter and ran off with a chap called Blake.

I have found no marriage for this second Britter - there is also another son on the 1901 census who I can find no records for, not a birth, nothing!

Maria married an S Bird, clearly widowed. There seems to be no census records of the family after the son was born (Gerard was a son who was born before they married and he sadly died before they married).

Somewhere along the years Susannah starting using her second name Maria. She married William Britter (Emely dropped Beckers and became Britter) Maria then married a Tom Britter (no relation) after she was widdowed. She then married a Samuel Bird. The 1891 census relates to daughter Emely (now called Britter) living as a family with 2 Bird step brothers. ��Hope this a bit clearer. The story takes a bit to unravel.
