Yes that is the Henry that I was looking at. Thank you . I don't think I'm going to be any good at family trees because I go over & over information and then can't make up my mind if it's right or not .
I would like to thank you & others for their time & help

Are you thinking this is Henry?.,as has been said, the 1874 Cert., would help with confirmation (hopefully!)

Chris :)

(not sure where Lincolnshire fits in?)

No as it must have been before 1835 on the bmd I got the information on family search

When you get the 1874 marriage cert, come back to us with full details of the info recorded on it

Brenda

Have you actually looked at freebmd to back up your statement that Henry Cowen married Elizabeth Johnson?

And where did you find the marriage of Thomas Ferguson to Gillender? WHEN did it take place?

I agree 100%........the cert is a must!

I have no idea where 1803 came from in connection with this................

The age is not quite in line with 1881/1891............but it's the only one with the same recorded birthplace

Looks like the 1874 Marriage Cert. is needed...

Chris :)

If '1836' is taken from a census, the birth would have been 1835/6

No! But I do know that Henry Cowen and Elizabeth Fergusson are the parents of Mary Marira Cowen b1885 , but I'm not doing well on finding their parents, I have Henry Cowen - Elizabeth Ferguson also Thomas Ferguson - Elizabeth Gillender :-(

Have you the marriage certificates

I have worked back I have Elizabeth Johnson married to Henry cowen (but not really sure ) they have a child Henry who married Elizabeth Ferguson in Northallerton in 1874 .

Reggie
If I am right Elizabeth is borderline for registation. Depends where the date comes from If a census plus or minus 2 years Need more info

An idea of the problem if you don't give us more info
