Birth	between 1790 and 1791 Pamber, Hampshire, England Shared note: RL 25/8/05: year and place of birth from 1851 Census. RL 25/8/05: year and place of birth from 1851 Census. I found two possible baptisms in the IGI, but neither seems likely, given birth dates and locations: birth 2 April 1789, bap. Abingdon 4 Sept 1793; birth 26 Dec 1792, bap. Sutton Courtenay, (nr Abingdon) Berks 6 Jan 1793.
Christening	16 October 1791 Pamber, Hampshire, England
Marriage banns	Charlotte Watkins — View this family 1822 (Age 32 years) Swallowfield, Berkshire, England
Marriage	Charlotte Watkins — View this family 30 June 1823 (Age 33 years) Odiham, Hampshire, England Shared note: 24/5/19: GL: Date and place of wedding from the HGS Transcription at Findmypast. 24/5/19: GL: Date and place of wedding from the HGS Transcription at Findmypast. 25/8/05 RL Date assumed from Banns info. (qv) from Swallowfield PR; seems likely to have taken place at Stratfield Saye (bride's home parish). Given the ages of Joseph and Charlotte (and noting that he was a widower when they married and 11 years her senior) it rather looks as though Harriet was their youngest child and that while George was not only baptised but had his birth registered (under the then very new system), the arrival of both of his two younger sisters was marked only via religious ritual. {26/8 NB ERROR - no bap. entry for Elizabeth!!} Obviously elder brother David was born before the registration system began. Given the date of Joseph and Charlotte's marriage, one might expect there to have been other children before David; however, whilst any such might well have been living elsewhere by 1851 - any male(s) perhaps even accounting (as parent(s)) for some of the other Dicker births in the RD in the 1850s and 1860s - from Helen's PR info. they don't appear to have been baptised at Swallowfield, so we may never know.

However, I can't find a record in FreeBMD (several other Dickers in the RD around the time, but NB limited births entered as yet for that year). On BMDIndex (full coverage of GRO data) the only Harriett Dicker birth registered between Jun 1843 and June 1845 was clearly in Uckfield, April/June 1844, vol. VII, p. 499 (or possibly p. 477). (There are also other Uckfield Dicker births: Frances, June quarter 1842; William, December quarter 1843; Frederick, December 1846; William, December quarter 1846.) 25/5/05 Added more info., including baptism from Swallowfield PR (from Helen Norton). PR entry gives dob as 19 April 1844, but I still can't locate civil registration. (25/8/05: See general note for further enquiries re. 'missing' GRO entry etc., in the course of which further details of Harriet's birth family, including her father's previous marriage(s?), and her first marriage came to light.)
