Notes for Harriet Chance
In 1852 she was living with her parents in Sidemoor, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire1856.
In 1861 she was living with her parents in the Pleck, Sidemoor, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire13.
In 1871 she was living with her father in Court 38, Worcester Street, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire1851.

In 1877 she was living in Worcester Street, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire3241.

In 1881 she was lodging with Edwin Peplow aged 57 and next door to her father, Benjamin Chance, and 4 of her children at Court 38, Worcester Street, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire917.
Colin Wood considers that Edwin Peplow may have been the father of Harriet Chance’s children.
"NOTE on 30-6-1883 a Samuel, Lizzie, and William Chance were baptised at St.Johns Church to a Harriet and Edwin from Worcester Street. In the 1881 census there is a Samuel, William, Lizzie, and Mary Ann Chance all grandchildren, living next door to Harriet Chance and Edwin Peplow with Harriet's father, Benjamin Chance. (So is Edwin Peplow the father of Harriet's illegitimate children?????)
In 1891 Samuel Chance, William Chance and Eliza (Lizzie?)Chance are still living with Edward Peplow next door to their Grandfather, Benjamin, in Worcester Street. They are listed as Stepchildren.
In 1901 Edward Peplow is living at 101 court 38 Worcester Street aged 77 and a widower and Nailer. With him are William Chance, nephew, single, 26 a Nailer and Elizabeth Chance, niece, single, 23, Tailoress.
Is the William Chance mentioned here, the witness at the wedding of Benjamin Chance(9A1), Eliza's illegitimate son, to Mary Ann Lammas?
