Hi - I'm researching Millward Family of Wrexham.
I have a William Millward who appears out of nowhere on 1881 census in Wrexham. He is 26 and a FISHMONGER - birthplace NOT KNOWN. He marries Catherine Clifford in 1883 and on the cert. his father is listed as Edward Millward (deceased) Butcher. On various of his children's BCerts. he is a Fish Dealer, Hawker and finally on his daughter's BCert. in 1886 he is a General Labourer. He does not appear on the 1891 census and Catherine is listed as WIDOW.
Can anyone find this William Milllward before 1881 and after 1891? His birth or death? His birth family? Hope someone can help. :-S

Thanks for taking an interest.
Yes that's him on the 1881 census but where is he before this and when and where does he die?
|
So they were married in 1883 but living as man and wife in 1881. Are Ellen and John Catherine's children?
I can't see a death for him at all
Are these two children William and Catherine's?

EDIT No, just a coincidence I think.
