I finally have the correct surname, and another family name to search for! And I think I’ve also just found them in the 1891 Census!! Perhaps I can now get a birthplace?!

Speaking to the granddaughter of Noel HAUGHTON/HAGGERSTADT(?) the other day again, her brother apparently suggested that Noel may have actually been Dutch, and not German! Oh, what fun I’m going to have tracking down the real truth!

Anecdotes stated that Noel was German and changed his name from HAGGERSTADT (or any number of variants; true spelling unknown) during WWI, presumably to avoid repercussions.
However, having just received a copy of Noel & Vera’s marriage certificate this weekend, it lists his occupation as Chief Engine Room Artificer on H.M.S. Prince Rupert, and his father as one Robert HAUGHTON, a Marine Engineer!

Now I’m confused … ! I’ve not been able to find much beyond this for either name, and certainly am struggling to determine where to go from here.

Any suggestions welcome!!
