Hi there, If anyone has the time and doesn't mind, could you kindly look up the following as I am unable to trace it??? Thomas Beasley & Rebecca (surname unknown) They had a daughter born 1892 in London Limehouse - Matilda Beasley but I cannot trace anything of their marriage..... On the 1901 census Matilda is their only child aged 9 and Thomas is 66 Years old - I'm not sure if Matilda is their only child, or if maybe he had a previous partner........ If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

Kim I think the best thing would be to get Matilda's B/C Births Dec 1891 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beasley Matilda Stepney 1c 434 Julie

Thanks I think you're right i'll have to get Tilly's BC. I'm a bit confused by all the info though - Am i right in thinking that Thomas was married to Mary and they had children - Charles, Edward, John and Emily - Living in Winslow? They must have seperated then as Thomas is then on his own in the 1891 census? What does the following info mean though? Beasley Thomas Winslow 3a 685 >>>Quainton Mary Winslow 3a 685 Scott Joseph Winslow 3a 685 Smith Elizabeth Winslow 3a 685 Thanks for all your help

Kim That is Mary his 1st wife, when someone does these>>>>its to hi-lite who we mean Thomas & mary married in 1854 had them children, then Thomas is on his own in the 1891, i couldn't find Mary or Children in the 1891 Julie
