27 March 1835

From: 1835 To: 1835

After the death of my late husband francis page in August 1827 I was removed with my two children Joseph and Thomas Page from the parish of Bermondsey in the County of Surrey to the parish of Harlington in the County of Bedford by orders of removal, there was no appeal from the orders. I only remained two days at Harlington and then returned to Bermondsey with a certificate from the parish of Harlington.. I have never resided at Harlington.After I returned to Bermondsey and whilst residing thereI received an allowance of three shillings a week from the parish of Harlington for about two years when I came to live in the parish of St Mary, Bedford. I have lived in that parish to the present time and have received a weekly allowance during the whole time from the parish of Harlingtonexcept during the last twelve weeks. A fortnight ago last Friday I received three shillings from Mr Grammar the Overseer of Harlington. I have done no act to gain any other settlement and am now chargeable to the parish of St mary, Bedford.
