This information has filled in some interesting gaps in my family tree. When i asked my uncle's about Emily, ( she would be their grandmother) none of them knew.My Mother Lorna,( deceased) Emily's granddaughter knew nothing about her.

I have been sifting through the Tipple records that i have and i have made a few startling discoveries.. George Tipple, Albert's father was born in Gravesend kent..
Sarah Ann Agnes Tipple born in Gravesend ,kent. I checked the 1871 census and they are both there as brother and sister,father's name William.
I have the marriage cert of Sarah Tipple to Frederick oram, her father's name is William. This must mean that Emily Oram and Albert Tipple were first cousins, yet they both married each other!!!. Was this really allowed back then, or have i discovered a " Skeleton in the cupboard" ?

so far as I am aware, there was no law against first cousins marrying back then

.............. and I'm not sure that there is even now


It is not recommended medically, as such marriages increase the chance of a recessive disease will appear in the offspring.

there is no law against marrying your cousin, the law was changed by Henry Vlll so that he could marry his cousin,
