(1844-1902)
| Father | Henry Sackett Hogbin (1808-1881) |
| Mother | Emily Scott Rook (c 1809-1887) |
Mary Sackett Hogbin, daughter of Henry Sackett Hogbin and Emily Scott Rook, was born in Ramsgate, KentG, in 1844.1,2 She died aged 57 in Farnham, SurreyG, in 1902.3 She married in Eastry, KentG, in 1870, William Hardy Neville.4 William was born in Colchester, EssexG, in about 1842.2
In 1851 she was living at 2 Wellington Cottages, Ramsgate, KentG, in the household of her parents Henry and Emily, and was recorded as Mary Hogbin, aged six and born in Ramsgate.5
In 1861 she was living at 2 Strand, Walmer, KentG, in the household of her parents Henry and Emily, and was recorded as Mary S Hogben, aged 16.6
In 1881 she was living at 2 York Terrace, Frimley Road, Frimley, SurreyG, in the household of her husband William Neville, 39, a staff sergeant in the Fusiliers, and was recorded as Mary S Neville, a school mistress at the Royal Military College, aged 30 [actually 36]. Also in the household were Mary's widowed mother Emily, 70, and Mary's unmarried sister Emily, 39.7
In 1891 she was living at 2 Victoria Terrace, FrimleyG, in the household of her husband William, and was recorded as Mary S Neville, a schoolmistress, aged 40.8
In 1901 she was living at 2 The Oaks, FrimleyG, in the household of her husband William, and was recorded as Mary S Nevill, aged 50.9
Mary Sackett Hogbin would appear to have understated her age upon marriage, with subsequent census records and her death record understating her age by six years. Her marriage record in the name of Mary Sackett Hogbin and death record in the name of Mary Sackett Neville argue against a possible mistaken identity. Further, her household in Frimley, Surrey, in 1881 included her sister Emily and their widowed mother Emily. Mary's father Henry Sackett Hogbin had died in the Farnham registration district, which includes Frimley, earlier the same year. Mary's mother Emily died there in 1887. To add to the confusion, Mary's sister Emily also understated her age, in her case by ten years, in the 1881 census.
