Thanks so much for all your help Tom, I think that Emily was probably at home in 1861 though and as the first child wasnt born until 1863, this may be a little early x

may sound like an odd question, but... who registered the birth and if it was George, could he write?

Tom, so kind of you to go to this trouble for me, I have looked up that one on the IGI and George Boxall married Mary Monger x

Right said Fred Report 5 Jun 2006 16:52

this is a possible - there is one more man than woman so... View Record Elizabeth Backhurst 1862 Oct-Nov-Dec Guildford Surrey View Record George Boxall 1862 Oct-Nov-Dec Guildford Surrey View Record Thomas Chapman 1862 Oct-Nov-Dec Guildford Surrey View Record Mary Monger 1862 Oct-Nov-Dec Guildford Surrey View Record James Wain 1862 Oct-Nov-Dec (Not Looked Up - Only Worthwhile If Corrected) but no Emily Barkers married then.. :-(

Hi Lizz, Unfortunately there are quite a few Emily Bakers born in Lambeth, and the year differs on the census' from 1839 to 1840! Very frustrating, especially as i found a marriage for a distant cousin today that she couldn't find, sixteen years after the birth of her first child. she couldn't believe it as the rellie had put that she was already married on the kids birth certs, she she gave up looking after the kids were born, but we all know these rellies tell lots of fibs to the registrars!!!! x

Hi Fuzzy I checked BMD and Ancestry, cross checked for 1855 through 1865 but no match with an Emily Baker and a George Boxall. Maggie

Hi Reg, there are so many george boxalls in the area and also emily bakers, it would be impossible to know which were my two!!
