Hi All

I hope someone can help. I have found Emma Joshua on the 1861 & 1871 census living with her parents Reese and Mary Joshua and her brother John in South Wales. She married Samuel Pothecary in 1873 and I havn't been able to find Emma and Samuel on any census after their marriage. Thank you.

regards

Hi GlitterBaby & KathleenBell

I don't have a certificate, I found her marriage on familysearch. As Joshua is an unusual name I assumed it was her.

The 1881 census with her as Emma Thomas is very interesting, her brother John (my ggg grand father) is mentioned, she was born in Nantyglo and Protheroe could be mistaken for Pothecary or vise versa.
Thank you very much

kind regards
