Thanks everyone, I know she was living with her aunt and Uncle which we don't know why, I would love to be able to trace back Edwin Weaver and Fanny Weaver nee Shipton marriage certificate or their birth certificates. If you come accross them could I have the numbers etc so I can order copies. I have always come up with a dead end for Mary Weaver was told she had a brother who was in the airforce and died on active duty.

Many thanks

This is their marriage

Marriages Sep 1887 (>99%)

Cashmore Edward W. Bromwich 6b 958

Mary was Fanny's sister


They married late, possibly could not have children, and offered (or were given) Mary Weaver after she was born

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 7 Aug 2014 05:02

In 1891, Edward and Mary Cashmore live next door to Edwin and Fanny Weaver, at 21 Stoney Lane



It looks as if the sisters were close ....................



and maybe Fanny was not well after Mary was born???
