Notes
HARRIET BUTCHER 1872-
Harriet BUTCHER was born in 1872.
(GRO December Q 1872 Petersfield 2c 137)
She is listed in the 1881 census returns at The Square, Petersfield, Hampshire:
George BUTCHER, head, aged 39, a licensed victualler, born at Martock, Somerset;
Ellen BUTCHER, wife, aged 40, born at Kirdford, Sussex;

*Harriet BUTCHER, servant, aged 20, general domestic servant, born at Petersfield, Hampshire, and working for newspaper proprietor Thomas R. BECKETT.
(RG12/774/56/46)
Note: Ancestry 1891 index has BELCHER - a mistranscription.
Her sister Ada BUTCHER may also have been in Eastbourne in 1891.
(RG12/772/123/29)
No trace of her has been found in the 1901 or 1911 census.
NOTES & QUERIES:
1). When and where did she die or marry?
2). Harriet BUTCHER is NOT synonymous with the Petersfield born Harriett JULIN, wife of Walter James JULIN, in the censuses of 1891 and 1901. Harriet JULIN's maiden name was SUMMERS according to the certificate of the birth of their son Percival Walter on 10 May 1893.
3). The 1901 census has a Harriett (sic) BUTCHER living as a servant to Martha SHARP and her son Richard at Burmah Lodge, Hardington Park, Preston, Brighton, Sussex. She was 30 years old, unmarried, and was said to have been born in Brighton - perhaps an error on the part of Martha or Richard. However, the birth of a Harriet Sarah BUTCHER was registered in Brighton in the March Q of 1871.
4). A Harriett (sic) BUTCHER married at Thakeham, Sussex, in 1912.
(GRO December Q Thakeham 2b 741)
5). Harriet BUTCHER is NOT synonymous with the 1898 Death in the Sub-district of Saint Giles in the County of Reading
