Birth:
The certificate gives her time of birth - half past three o'clock in the morning. Her father is given as a horsekeeper. Mother Eliza, formerly Pope, made her mark. She lived in St Radigunds St, St Mary Northgate.Notes:
Married:
Ellen Norris and the witnesses William Norris and Sarah Ann Norris made their mark - ie could not write, but Noah signed. Interesting that the witnesses were both Norris - no relative of Noah.
They were both 'of full age' and not previously married. He was a coachman and lived in Lamb Lane, father Stephen who was a labourer. She lived in All Saints Lane, father William who was a hostler (ostler maybe?). They were married in the parish church of All Saints in Canterbury.Children:

8. Stephen Hughes was born about 1786 in Chislett, Kent, England; was christened on 26 Mar 1786 in Chislett, Kent, England (son of Stephen Hughes and Mary Ingleton); died before 1861. Notes:
There's a long gap between the first two children and the other three. Possibly Stephen and James were children of a previous marriage.
Stephen married Sarah Carden. Sarah was born about 1796 in Chislett, Kent, England; was christened on 19 Nov 1797 in Chislett, Kent, England; died on 2 Mar 1876 in Saint Lawrence, Isle of Thanet, Kent, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
9. Sarah Carden was born about 1796 in Chislett, Kent, England; was christened on 19 Nov 1797 in Chislett, Kent, England; died on 2 Mar 1876 in Saint Lawrence, Isle of Thanet, Kent, England. Notes:
The 1861 and 1871 census entries are speculative until Stephen's death is established. He doesn't appear himself in 1861, and there are two possible deaths in Thanet between 1851 and 1861. The 1871 census entry is especially uncertain since Ancestry doesn't show if it was St Laurence parish in Thanet or some other one.
Children:
- Stephen Hughes was born about 1821.
- James Hughes was born about 1822.
- 4. Noah Hughes was born about 1834 in Chislett, Kent, England; was christened on 06 Jul 1834 in Chislett, Kent, England; died on 19 Aug 1911 in 16, Newton St, Shoreditch, London, England.

10. William Norris was born on 12 Jul 1795 in Ashford, Kent, England (son of John Norris and Ann); died before 1868. Other Events:
- Occupation: Horsekeeper
William married Eliza Pope. Eliza was born about 1806 in Canterbury, Kent, England; died on 14 Mar 1868 in All Saints Lane, Canterbury, Kent, England.. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
11. Eliza Pope was born about 1806 in Canterbury, Kent, England; died on 14 Mar 1868 in All Saints Lane, Canterbury, Kent, England.. Other Events:
- Occupation: Chairwoman
Notes:
In 1841 William and Eliza Norris, had two children, William and Ellen. In 1851 census Eliza was head of family, neither father William nor son William were there. Her surname was Norris and she had children called Norris and a daughter and grandchildren called Pope. In the 1861 census father William was back, and the Popes are shown as daughter- and sons-in-law. But son William is still missing.
I have assumed that Elizabeth Pope was a natural daughter of Eliza's before her marriage. I have also assumed that Elizabeth's son William (6 in 1851) is the same as son Henry (17 in 1861).
Occupation:
The occupations in 1851 definitely read 'chairwoman', but possibly they actually meant charwoman.
