Valerie...... Another option ! Thomas had brothers ..so Elizabeth could be the daughter of one of them that had maybe died & been "adopted" by family...... ie:- nurse child. And if father James had brothers then could maybe be one of his....?
Just a thought.

The vicar may have presumed he was a Batchelor?...

Did Thomas sign the register himself? if he couldn`t read or write he wouldn`t have known if any of the information was wrong.

Think all the evidence shows you have the correct family.

Have you checked the neightbours?, people locally on the census to see if anyone else from Essex also went to Yorkshire.

He may just simply have been offered work up there and gone because of that, prehaps he fell out with family after his wifes death?

People did move about in those days and its not always obvious why.

Hello again
reference ll the above I now have the marrige cert of Thomas Lambert and Hannah Yeoman. They were maried in Yorkshire in 1877. I feel this is the right family as all details fit. Thomas father, James and occupation. Hannah born out of wedlock so no name of father. Thomas states he was a batchelor. But in the 1871 census Thomas is living in Essex with parents also listed is Elizabeth Lambert daughter in law. Marriage cert for Thomas and Elizabeth in 1871 and death cert for Elizabeth in 1873, no trace of a child. Why would Thomas put batchelor on mc to Hannah? mistake? It must be the right family also as all the children fit
Arthur born in Yorkshire in 1877, all other children from 1881 to 1901
census born in essex. They then moved back to Yorkshire in the 1901
census. Essex to Yorkshire to meet and marry Hannah in the 1800's was
quite a distance to travel, any suggestions as to why he would move that far? He was an Ag. Labourer.

Thanks Mary and everyone am now sending for m.c. Thomas and Hannah
Will let you all know outcome.

There is a place called Stanford le Hope in Essex ............

Well it looks as though that is the same family that I were following and Thomas did marry Hannah Yoemans 1877in Yorkshire , maybe you should send for the certificate to confirm.

info as requested:
James Lambert 1806 and Mary c1808 had the following children:
John 1831
Eliza 1839
Mary 1832
Charlotte 1836
George 1841
William 1843
Thomas 1849/50
all the above born in Little Bentley, Tendring, Essex.
with the exception of Thomas have traced all the others with spouses and children.
re ||Thomas
1861 census with parents and 1 brother William
1871 census still with parents at Cross Rd Manningtree
also listed is Elizabeth Lambert daughter in law age 22
1881 census with wife Hannah age 22 and children
Arthur 1877, James 1879, Emily 1881 all born Tendring area
Hannah gives her birthplace as Standford Essex
living Cross Rd, Manningtree
1891 census with wife Annie age 35 birthplace Yorks with children
Arthur 1877 born Yorks, James 1879 Lawford, Essex.
Emily 1881, Mary 1883, Ellen 1885, Clara 1887, Florence 1889,
Minnie 1891, all born Essex.
living Cottage, Farm Road, Manningtree, Essex.
1901 census living with wife Hannah age 44 born Yorks (age and birthplace fits with Annie) with children Florence 1889, Minnie 1891,
Thomas 1894, Frederick 1898 cjildren all born Essex in the Manningtree area. living in the village, Flaxton,Yorks.

children all fit from census to census which is too much to be a coincidence. I therefore feel they started out in Essex area and then moved to birthplace of wife i.e. Yorks. Could there be mistakes in the census records?
Many thanks to Mary and anyone else out there in helping me solve this.

So what about the info I posted??

You said Hannah in 1911 was in Yorks so why isn't the one I posted the same as yours???

Please could you post the info you have census's etc and the children of your Thomas and Hannah so I can rule in or out what I have found.

The first child of Thomas and Hannah ,Arthur was born Stamford Bridge 1877 probably before marriage.



Maryb

Been looking through the census...I don`t think the 1911 Thomas Lambert living in the Barn in Essex is your Thomas ...I think its the unmarried one { it does say he`s single not widowed} who gives his birthplace as Little Bentley Essex through most of the census`s.

.It may be worth getting the death cert for Thomas Lambert in 1910 in York that Mary posted for confirmation...


Nicky

There is a marriage of a Thomas Lambert & Hannah Wallis in 1871 and on the 1881 they are living in Maldon Essex parish of Steeple he is a Farm Labourer(ag Lab) children Charlotte b 1873, Ada b 1878 and Elizabeth Hannah b 1881

Many thanks for all the replies re Thomas Lambert. Occupation for Thomas is Agricultural Labourer. Thankyou Shirley for suggesting Elizabeth Ann could be the Annie in 1891 census but there is a 10 year age difference between Annie and Elizabeth. I still feel I have the right family as all the children match up as you go into each census from 1881 to 1901. I accept the m.c. of Elizabeth and Thomas inTendring Essex in 1871 and the death of Elizabeth in \Tendring 1873. But I still cant find a m.c. for Thomas and Hannah which would have been in between 1873 and 1881. I think unless anyone has any ideas I will have to back track on a lot of my info.

It could still be same family if Elizabeth Ann (Lamb) his 1st wife died then he remarried 1877.

Maryb

so who is Elizabeth on the 1871 census DIL of James & Mary ?

that ties with the 1871 marriage of Thomas Lambert to Elzabeth Ann Lamb.

Valerie has Thomas a widower on his own on 1911 census.

I think we are talking two different families here.


Valere which Lambert are you decended from ? I think you may have crossed two families infos

I think it was Hannah Yoeman married thomas lambert.

Thomas Dykes age 22 carpenter born Bishop Wilton

1871 Stamford bridge with Scoreby
Thomas Dykes 32

I think the only way is to get that birth cert for Minnie

his wife was Elizabeth Ann Lamb.
Its possible he called her Annie so its the same lady as the 1891 census, the birth cert for Minnie should clarify things.

My paternal gran was Emma Ann but her second husband called her Annie so thats the name he reg for her whenever he was giving info. ie on their eldest two children births reg by him mums name is given as Annie
