Alice was born 15/3/1882 Fulham
Her father was Charles Grey, a tailor
She married Charles Bowyer 24/8/1902 at Sydenham

My problem is I cannot find Alice in 1901 nor 1891 census.

Can you help please

Hi Everyone.

I don't know who her mother was, and like LancashireAnn I cannot find a Gray a Marrell/Murrell marriage.

The Fulham birth can't be correct as she is listed being born in Highgate.

This must be her birth:

Islington reg district though doesn’t cover Highgate
That would be more Camden reg

Islington covers amongst other Highbury not Highgate

The marriage cert to Charles would be the place to start for her fathers name

Shirley, I think Gerry has the marriage certificate- her father is listed as Charles Gray, tailor.

Gerry- what was the address for Alice and names of witnesses?
-----------------------------------

Re the 1881 marriage for Charles Richard Gray- he married Frances Eleanor Marsden, not Amy Stone.

Charles Shepperd Gray born 1851 in Gillingham to William Gray 1825 and Ann nee Sheperd 1824 married 1845 in Gillingahm

1871 Gillingham
William
Ann
Charles S Gray 19 a Tailor Journeyman

1872 J/F/M V2a P319
Charles Shepperd Gray married Elizabeth Jane Weare in Kingston Surrey

I can't see a marriage for a Charles to a Joanna Stone!, so was he still married to a first wife.

Death Charles Shepperd Gray died O/N/D 1895 Maidstone Kent V2a P409.

Strange his wife Elizabeth Jane with his parents 1881,they had a daughter Lilly Beatrice 1872 no sign of Charles S Gray 1881

So do we have Charles married to Elizabeth Jane and with Joanna in 1881/91 or are they two different Charles Gray,just curious as in 1891 he is down as James S
