In
the 1850's Harriet lived at Midanbury House at Bitterne, near
Southampton with her father, John, brother Henry and sister Eliza.
When John died Eliza and Harriet moved in to the new Redcote Vicarage
which Henry had built in 1860.
The two sisters donated much of the money (£3,100) for the building of
the Parish Church at Bitterne. It is not certain which of the two sisters paid (£400) for the
building of the first Infant School in Bitterne. This "neat red
brick building" became the Mission Hall (later Gospel Hall) where
popular Saturday lantern slide shows took place, before the wireless
killed such entertainment.
