Find Ancestors

My grandfather George anderson married Ann Gladden told by my family who are all dead now, in 1914 I found Army papers with both their names and childrens that match with my aunts and uncles, I counted back the date that was on the Army paper and found a match of March 1880 I also matched his death date with what the family told me, I found a George anderson(1880) with a father George and sent off for it, and thats how I have his mother's name and the maiden name of shipp, I then ordered their marriage certificate which came up with Wilmer Gardens and matched some census with this info.

Also George Anderson was born 28 March 1880 7 duke st, B/G parents George Anderson and Mary Ann Shipp.

Yes that's the one.

Just for ref, the marriage.

Do you have them on the 1911 census?

Christine

Do you think I'm just confusing myself because I've found two Addresses that match two Census 1881.

Yes. 1911 census if I remember off the top of my head is George Anderson Annie Anderson son George not Georgina and Lillian and I can't remember if Ruth is on their aswell.

If he gives Bethnal Green as his birthplace in 1911 and his marriage cert then you probably have the correct one.

Christine

On his Marriage cert George Anderson is 24(1880) and the Army paper states B/Green MIddx.

The more this is being looked into it looks like it must be a co-incidence that these address match both different family's, It looks like 7 Duke Street is my best bet.

I wish to say thank you to all who have helped me on this one, some times you can look to hard and get confused.
Thanks.
