I have a marriage for Mary :-

Marriages Dec 1913
Lawton George F Wilcox W.Derby
8b 777

Wilcox Mary E Lawton W.Derby
8b 777

but I am having trouble finding her and her family in 1901

I have some names purporting to be her family but I do not recall where they came from.

The family I have is Father William Wilcox and wife Alice (who have a potential marriage in St Saviour, Southwark - FreeBMD)
Children are Alice Ann 1882, James J 1886, Ellen 1890 and Mary E 1894.

Is anybody able to show the validity of this family please?

Many thanks,
Frances

Thank you Gai, I wonder why they wouldn't come up for me......

At least I now know they are real.

Frances,
I'm normally the last person that can find a record so I'm surprised that I found
the family.


Gai

Now I have their ages I have found a marriage that should suit :-

Marriages Sep 1871
Wilcox William Liverpool
8b 234

BUSHELL Alice Liverpool
8b 234

so there are probably a load of earlier children to look for.....

Frances,

Have you found the family on the 1911 census as it should have how many
children born and how many still alive.
