When you buy a Marriage cert, NEVER dissmiss the witnesses...
Fingers crossed for you.
This could be expensive! £7 per cert!

William 8 mths in 1871 is son of Lois so can't be married to her as she's his mother , does that make sense, spelling differences through the census's changes her name from lois in 1871 to louis in 1881 to louisa in 1901.

all very confusing as ther are lots of william's and johns through all the family lines in those census

2 April was census night in 1871.

So William 8 months would have been born abt August 1870?

Hi Susie
Have you found the William (8 months on the 1871 census) in the 1901 census? He would be more about the right age to be your g grandmotherer's father. Perhaps the marriage Still looking found is his, and he also married a Louisa.

Jackie

Susie....this is a secret so dont tell anyone OK?

go to FreeBMD...

click on search...

highlight 'Marriage'....

put his and her surnames and maybe Christian name....


Bobs ya Uncle!

;-) ssshhhhhh

I might be an old codger but i have me uses! lol

That looks promising, can I just ask how you did tthat so quickly, how do you get both the names as when you do a search early on it does not give spouses name so surely you ave to do 2 individual searches with no real starting date ?

A maybe?

JONES Louisa Conway 11b 918
Parry Jane Conway 11b 918
Price John Conway 11b 918

Louisa's maiden name was Jones!! Sorry
Maiden name Louisa Penelope Jones

If I get a copy of the death cert will it give details of who registered the death, I havn't obtained one yet so don't know what they have on them.

Father occupation Hair dresser (journeyman)
although oringinally most of the men through the family were wait for it.....
Stone Mason's
Robert in the 1901 census has occupation barber though.

No she is definately down as the mother, 54's not un reasonable in those days!

Pam

To have a child at 54 was not uncommon.
Also remember the age is 'abt'54

What about John and Williams occupations?

What was on your ggrandmothers birth cert for Father Williams occupation?

(Pleeeease dont say miner!!!) lol...sorry

Would have said Louisa probably too old to have a child at 54 in 1903.

That's my thinking, but can't find any evidence to prove it as have no real dates for marriages or deaths as search is to big and names to common

Very frustrated

Did Louisa team up with ......Brother - William Salisbury 38 (lodger)

???

Have you looked for a death of John?
