Hi not sure this is right Hurcombe ones you have looked at are they spelling Hurcombe with e on the end it could be the one I am looking for as I know so little. Thanks for details sent Anne.

There were only three people list on the page for 1863 marriage that Catherine found.

This is probably the fourth - and her name is Hannah:

Marriages Jun 1863 (>99%)
MASON Hannah Ch* Stroud 6a 5[23]8

A postem has been added to this entry on freebmd:

"31/07/2008 most likely spouse Henry Hurcomb m.Jun 1863 Stroud 6a 538, as per census records (1871 )and family records " No name of the poster

Anne, the spelling of names changes over the years. How have you got back to Harry? Do you have his marriage cert and have you found him on any census? Where did you get Birmingham as his place of birth from?

Hi Potty do have record of marriage for Harry to Florence Watton Birmingham 5th Feb 1891 Anne.

This is the GRO ref for the marriage (from freebmd). Where did you get the exact date of the marriage?

Marriages Mar 1891 (>99%)
Hurcombe Harry George T Birmingham 6d 247
Watton Florence Birmingham 6d 247

Potty got the date from copy of marriage cert. detail u sent is spot on for names married register office. Birmingham dont know Harry was born in Birmingham assumed as married there? never assume I hear you say. Anne.

Quite right, Anne, never assume!

I think your Harry is on the 1891 census as Harry G T Harcombe - I don't have an Ancestry subscription so cannot look up the transcription and I can't find him on this site's census.

Perhaps somebody could look it up for you, if you don't have Ancestry.

Can't find them on the 1891 census. It was taken 5 April so they should be on it as a married couple.

Margaret, did you look under Harcombe? He is there on Ancestry. If you enter the first names as Harry G T he should be at the top of the page.

Yes, Potty!!! And Florence is Florance.
1891 census
8 George Terrace, Aston, Birmingham
Harry G.T. Harcombe, head, 22, cellarman bottles, born Chipping Norton, Oxon
Florance A., wife, 21, born Teckerham?, Warwick
Plus 2 lodgers.

Now I can't find them in 1901.
HELP! POTTY!

Struggling to find him in 1901.

Anne, did he and Florence have any children? Do you have their names and YOB.
