Could some-one please have a look in the above for George Powell born c1844 London Middlesex. Wife is Annie. I have found them in 1881 at 150 Landsdown Road Ecclesall Bierlow. West Yorkshire, with Son Harry 0. Wondering if they had any more children later in their marriage.

Sorry about the layout...................it's from GR, and is ridiculous

FMP is playing up

I see that they had another Harry.................named, no doubt, as a tribute to the first one

HI Jacqueline,
Thank-you for looking.
I though that Annie was born in 1854 in Sheffield, but a bit confused now as there is a bigger age difference between George and Annie than before. George's details seem to be ok, but where is Harry who was born 1881 in Sheffield?? There is a marriage for George Powell to Annie Lomas in Sheffield in 1879 but I don't know if this is them.
Teresa.

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 28 Jan 2015 09:52

Harry obviously died.......check freebmd

To verify MMN, get a child's birth cert

Probably lied about Annie's age because of the gap, but certs are the way to get the facts

However, Annie (from 1881 census) could have died and a second marriage taken place.......................all things are possible

She is Annie E in 1891 an 1901 and no sign of an E on the 1879 marriage record

Thanks Jaqueline and Gins.
The only Powell/Allen marriage I could find, and George H being born in 1914 with mother Allen - shouldn't have assumed that was correct!!!!
Teresa.

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 28 Jan 2015 10:11

The marriage is probably correct, it's your assumption about Harry's details which is almost certainly at fault

A copy of the cert is essential.
