Sophia INGE
Set As Default Person -
Name Sophia INGE Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 6 Jan 1875 3, Shortlands Villas, Beckenham, Kent, England
- GRO ref: INGE, Sophia q1 1875 Bromley RD 2a 347; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Goatham
Gender Female Died 13 Jun 1875 52, Tanner Street, Faversham, Kent, England
Cause: Diarrhoea (2 days) - GRO ref: HINGE [sic], Sophia q2 1875 aged 0 Faversham RD 2a 476; GRO online index originally showed age as 5 (clearly months, now shown as years).
Details from death registration (GRO register copy)
Although her surname is given as Hinge it is easy to see how this could be mis-recorded and the evidence and the death registration clearly shows it was this Sophia: it not only names her father and his occupation correctly, apart from an 'H', but also Sophia's maternal grandfather, described as grandfather, was the informant, and it was at his home that she died.
Living away from family in Bromley Thomas would have found it hard to look after a young baby, and so that she should be placed with family to care for her would seem likely. With both of Sophia's parents being from Faversham it is was likely that she would be placed with family in Faversham and from the place of death it seems it was probably her maternal grandmother who was her main carer.
