it would be appreciated if someone could do a look up for me please.

A Bertha Bickerton(1865) married a Albert Evans (1867) in 1887 shropshire. Bertha would be my gr gr aunt, have all information on her parents and siblings etc., but do not know what happened to bertha once she married, therefore census's would show where she lived and if she had any children.
thanking you.

Is this the marriage?:
Marriages Jun 1887
Bickerton Bertha Madeley 6a 1197
Evans Albert Edward Madeley 6a 1197

(as Albert Edward gives us an extra name to track)

thanks patchem, already had information the you have posted. I am trying to find as to where she was after her marriage in 1887. Hence the reason for1891 1901 lookups

thanks again

I put the 1871 so we knew if it was the correct family etc as you had not said she was born in Dawley, and that her husband was Albert Edward, as these all help in trying to find her.
Is Albert also from Dawley?
Thanks

hi patchem, thanks for your help and time.

when you say emigrated? have you any further info as to when and to where etc.,

thanks once again

patchem Report 26 Mar 2011 09:40

No, I put emigrated because I could find no further sign of them in any of the censuses (including 1911), nor deaths in Madeley. (Nor deaths or marriages in Shropshire for Bertha)
Bickerton would be easier to find as too many Evans.
I did not check censuses for the rest of the family to see if any odd nieces or nephews or grandchildren turned up, but assumed that you had already done that as you said you had family information.
I cannot remember what profession I decided Albert was. What did it say on the marriage certificate? If they did emigrate this could give a clue as to where. Also, Bertha was a servant (in Lancashire?) in 1881, and further hints there?
Sorry not to be of more help.
Have you looked to see if anyone else have them in their trees on here?
Pat
