I'm trying to solve a puzzle with these 3 related surnames.
Robert Hutchinson (born 1844) was the publican and Cab Owner of the Prince Alfred, Derby Street, Horninglow in the 1891 Census.
His wife at this time is Letitia (or Letetia in the census) born 1865 as Letitia Faulkner, daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth (Betsy) Faulkner in Swadlincote. They were married in 1888 in Horninglow (Marriage Register 1888 Q3 Burton Upon Trent 6b 502).
His son, by previous marriage to Maria who died in 1887 (Death Register 1885 Q2 Burton 6b 238) is Frederick William Hutchinson (born 1870), also resident at the Prince Alfred in 1891.
His daughter, Elizabeth Sophia, by previous marriage to Maria, married George Henry Reading in 1887 (Marriage Register 1887 Q3 Burton 6b 537) and had a son George F. Reading in 1889.
At some time between the 1891 census and 1894 Robert either moves on, or dies, but I cannot find any further record for him, nor for Frederick.
However, Letitia takes up with a John Frettsome and produces the first of 5 Children, Dinah Maud Frettsome. Letitia dies in 1905 and the death register (and certificate) shows her as Letitia Frettsome. Frettsome can and does appear in various records as Fretsome, Fretsom, Frettsom and Fretson, depending on the capability of the registrar or census taker!
I am despreately trying to find the demise of Robert and the Marriage of John and Letitia.
Thanks
Andrew Piper

Hi Andrew, I have a Dinah maud Frettsome,born 1894,in my tree.Father is John born 1864,but Mother is Lillie. Is there a connection? Best wishes Lou Hi Lou, Sorry for not replying sooner. Yes there is a connection, I guess you found 'Lillie' in the 1901 census. Dinah was born on 20 May 1894 and married George Ernest Burgess on 20 Sep 1913, so I guess you belong somewhere down this line? We have both Dinah's Birth certificate, mother Letitia Frettsome, and Letitia's Death Certificate (1905), and can only guess that 'Lillie' was her house name, or the census taker couldn't spell Letitia! I look forward to hearing further from you as we are trying to follow the family through to the current times. If you have any other information about John and Letitia we would be grateful to hear it. If You can send me a PM with an e-mail address and we can follow this up in more detail (Icon at the left hand side) Regards Andrew
