Hope I am in the right county, hopefully. I have a copy of a birth registration 1/3/1878 for Hannah Sabrina (Sabina) born to Mary Fido formerly Griffiths and George Fido. I am wondering if anyone has any other information regarding this family. Thank you, and merry Christmas to all.

Exactly what sort of 'other information' are you looking for?
In the 1881 census George is 64, wife Mary is 41, and Hannah Sabrina is listed as Anna S, aged 3. Also in the family is Maud E, aged 5 months. Living in the civil parish of St Philip and St Jacob Bristol. RG11/2497 folio 85 page 24.
George and Mary appear to have married June quarter 1872 Bristol registration district.
There may have been other children born before Hannah. You can check for births with mother's maiden name showing on the GRO's Historical births index.

Thanks for replying. I have seen brief version of 1881 census and wondered about the age of George Fido and these young children. I was hoping someone in B-G community might have been related and could shed some light. It is an unusual surname.
I think Hannah married a George Thomas Smith in Bristol in 1904 and in 1906 they had a son called George Samuel Fry Smith. Prior to this Hannah/Annie had 2 illegitimate children, the first, Helena Fry, died in 1896. Do appreciate you checked for me.

George Fido, occ. Gardner married Sarah Ann Rich 20 Jun 1859 at Bristol. His father's name is Thomas Fido.
Sarah Ann's Rich fathers name is Thomas Walker so this could be her second marriage

Thank you Sandyhall. Odd that you found a Hannah Fido of the right birth year in 2 different 1891 census. I think only Hannah and Maud born to George and Mary. However, it also seems very likely that George has married 4 times, studying the freebdm website, and noting when each wife died. If I am correct he has married a Hannah Fry, Sarah Ann Rich, Elizabeth Champion and lastly Mary Griffiths. Very interesting. I have also found on that site a George Fido dying in 1902 and Mary Fido the next year, so probably they are Hannah & Maud's parents.

looking for marriages Fido to Fry this is the only one that comes up on a search on FreeBMD of all Marriages Surname: Fido Spouse/Mother's surname: Fry. District: all County: all
Marriages Mar 1838
Mark George FIDO, Bath. vol no 11. Page no 23.
on the same page Hannah FRY
So I should think the births that I found for Mary Ann 1850 MMN Fry
and Henry 1852 MMN Fry are their children there also may be more.

Just a round up for you
1817 George Fido born Marshfield, Gloustershire Father Thomas Fido.
1859 George Fido Marries Sarah Ann Rich Bristol her father is Thomas Walker
1861 Census. George (Fide) Fido age 44 occ. Gardener with Sarah A b 1826
and children who I think are from her previous marriage not the children of George
1872 George Fido marries Mary Griffiths of Ilfracombe Devon in bristol
1881 Census. George Fido no Occ. with Mary nee Griffiths and children
Anna S born 1878 Bristol real name Hannah Sabrina Fido
Maud E born1881 Bristol real name Elizabeth Maud Fido

1901 Census. George Fido with Mary and both girls.
1902 Death age 85
1843 Sarah Ann Walker Married Frederick Rich, Bristol on 30 Oct 1843 his father was Samuel Walker
There is a marriage for Hannah Sabrina but 2 names on the page one is George Thomas Smith in Bristol in 1904 unless you can follow her on the census or purchase the cert you won't know for sure.
You should find them in the 1911 Census
