Note on Amy Dorling - born 1820
One of the Dorling puzzles: who did George Tillett marry in 1862?
Certificate of marriage (1862 Jun Mildenhall 4a 642)
1862 20th June:
George Tillett, age 23, bachelor, labourer, resident in Herringswell, son of Thomas Tillett, farm labourer;
to Mary Ann Dorling, age 22, spinster,; of Barton Mills - no father`s name given;
in the Baptist chapel, Barton Mills; signed George Tillett and the mark of Mary Ann Dorling.
Witnesses John Tillett and Eliza Aggus. There is more about the Eliza Aggus mystery below.
A search of births:
(Sep 1838 Mildenhall 13 391) for Dorling Mary shows her
daughter of Robert Dorling and Sarah formerly Bright;
(Mar 1840 Mildenhall 13 451) for Dorling Mary shows her
daughter of Daniel Dorling and Ann Dorling, formerly Ann Walker.
(Jun 1840 Mildenhall 13 447) produces the likely Mary Ann:-
Certificate: 22nd June 1840 in Barton Mills; Mary Ann; father John Carter, footman to the
Revd George Barber Paley of Freckenham;
mother: Emma Dorling. Informant Emma Dorling - her mark.
There is another entry for a Mary Ann Carter for Sep 1840 (Mildenhall 13 447) which must relate
to the same birth certificate;
to confuse the issue, there is a further entry for a Mary Ann Carter for Sep 1840 (Mildenhall 13 415);
on the same page as for James Dorling. The James Dorling in the 1841 census, aged 10 months,
belongs to Robert & Sarah Bright.
There are no other Mary Ann entries for Sep 1840 Mildenhall 13 415,
so at least John Carter wasn`t responsible for other duplicate entries.
I could find no appropriate entries for an Emma or Mary Ann Dorling or Carter in Suffolk in the 1841 census.
In the 1851 census, however, there is a Mary Ann, age 10, visitor to Stephen and Mary King
in Mildenhall. In 1861 there is an entry for Dorling Mary Ann, age 20, daughter,
born in Barton Mills: her mother - the head of the household - is named as Army, age 42,
a Nurse, born in Barton Mills, living at The Street in Barton Mills.
There are two further children - Samuel, age 15, a Flint Napper, born in Mildenhall; and Anna, age 4, born in Barton Mills.
In 1871 George Tillett, age 32, and Mary Ann, age 30. are living with 2 children at The Alley, Worlington.
I could find no Emma or Amy near the appropriate age anywhere in the 1871 census index; but the 1881
shows George Tillett, age 42 and Mary Ann, age 40, and their children living back in The Street
in Barton Mills - and in the next line:- Amy DORLING, Head age 62, Charwoman, born in Barton Mills.
In 1891 she had become mother-in-law living with the Tilletts. It seems probable that Amy died in 1895.
So the puzzle has become - who is Amy/ Army/ Emma, mother of Mary Ann?
It seems strongly likely that the Samuel. aged 5, a grandson in the 1851 census for Samuel (born 1787)
and Mary, is the same Samuel as that aged 15 in 1861, now a flint knapper.
I am happy to accept that it is Amy/Amey born 1820 to Samuel and Mary who is assigned the Emma and
Army names; that she was unmarried when she had Mary Ann by John Carter, and still unmarried when she
had Samuel and Anna. I think that the Emma only occurs on the birth certificate of Mary Ann,
where the mother cannot sign her own name, or presumably check its correct spelling.
Note on Elizabeth Dorling - born 1820
The 1871 census suggests that Elizabeth had 3 children, though no marriage has been
traced. Indeed, the birth certificate of Caroline, and her marriage certificate
(to Alfred Peachey) and the marriage certificate of Robert in 1877
name nobody as their father.
The habit continues in the family as the birth certificate for Sophia Amelia of 12th February 1871
at Barton Mills names the mother as Caroline Dorling but gives no father`s identity.
Elizabeth`s daughter in this 1871 census, Eliza, is a further enigma.
There is no trace of the birth of an Eliza Clarke to match date or place, nor of an Eliza Dorling;
nor could I find a marriage to a Clarke.
There was, however, an Eliza Aggus born in 1844 in the Mildenhall register; and Eliza Aggus was a witness
at the marriage of (possibly) cousin Mary Ann - similarly having an unmarried mother - both born in the
same year. The birth certificate (1844 Jun Mildenhall 13 461) names William Aggus , carpenter, as father,
and Elizabeth Aggus, formerly Nurse, as mother.
Rootsuk.com finds an appropriate father in the 1841 census in Workhouse Lane , but not in 1851.
Findmypast shows an Aggus family in Balls Lane (1841) and Church Lane (1851) neither with a William.
The 1851 Church Lane family includes AGGUS, Eliza, Grand Daughter, age 6, claiming she was born like the
rest of that family, in Epping, Essex. In 1861, however, the birth place is correctly attributed
to Barton Mills. She is still living with her grandparents. The name appears to have disappeared from
the 1871 census for Suffolk. This is the year in which Eliza Clarke appears.
Findmypast can produce in 1841 an Elizabeth Nurse, age 15, resident at Bull Inn Square alongside an
Eliza Aggus age 20.
No marriage was found to a Clarke - only a marriage entry for an Eliza Aggus in Dec 1870 in Wakefield
to either Richard Heppenstall or John Addy.
I have not been able to untangle this fascinating puzzle.
