Re: 19th century English sisters with name nerd parents
in reply to a message by Just Jonquil
I've come across this family before - can't remember in what context. I think there were nine of them, all with similarly fancy handles. There was a brother called Horman - definitely not Norman! - which I've never seen before.

I tried to find further siblings but without success.
Here you go :)
1848 Jane Lewis Knight Eaton b 1848 (from 1st mge to Hephzibah Anna Paddon)
1863 Davis Harold Thomas Mason Knight Eaton
1864 Sarah Josephine Julia Margaret Mason Knight Eaton
1866 Hephzibah Juliana Henrietta Genevieve Mason Knight Eaton (d 1871)
1867 Horman Davis Henry Urel Mason Knight Eaton
1869 Wynefride Gretchen Constance Lea Mason Knight Eaton (d 1871)
1871 Bertram Robert Owen Lloyd Mason Knight Eaton
1874 Genevieve Julia Henrietta Zoe Estelle Hephzibah Mason Knight Eaton
(her will has her down as Genevieve Hephzibah Juliana Henrietta Zenaide Estelle Mason Eaton! - it's all v confusing)
1874 Gretchen Constance Lea Wynefride Maria Zenaide Mason Knight Eaton
Odd that some of Julia's children got named after the first wife!
