I can't see a marriage either. They seemed to move around a bit too didn't they!

Have you managed to find deaths for them? Did consider these, but it's probably a step too far! And it assumes Florence's middle initial has been mis-transcribed.

I am guessing this is the adopted daughter, doesn't help one jot though.

yes have the deaths.. thx

Did consider this one - the upstrokes of of a hand written W could be incorrectly transcibed as 2 x l
However, there is no way Edward could turn into Wright!

Disclaimer - None of the names have been followed through to census etc

OK, so have you got Florence's middle name in that case, from the death cert?

I assume this is their adopted daughter:

Blaine, I would recommend you get the death cert to ascertain her middle name.
I can't find a marriage for them, maybe someone else will have more luck.

What maiden surname is shown on the tree?

Where do you get the info that Florence had married someone else before moving in with Owles?

Just looking through the records...
