Hi
I am having trouble finding birth of Eliza Manning born 1845-1848c in Suffolk/Norfolk area. I have found her in a census living with my GGgrandfather Joseph Fountain it stated that Yarmouth was her place of birth and their first born son in Marylebone. I am unable to trace back to her parents etc. Does anyone tracing the Mannings have any knowledge of this lady

regards
Tina

Do you have their marriage?

Tina

Tina Report 14 May 2010 22:40

Hi LadyKira
Many thanks for the help but what I am really looking for is a marriage around 1868 to Joseph Owen Fountain
It is this I'm stumped on as I cannot go back in history without knowing when the marriage is
For sure I did know where they lived and it still exists in Pancreas Middlesex I've got photos but I really need the marriage or her birth certificate to chase that line

regards and thanks once again Tina (Karens mother)

Well you have just added an extra piece of info there.

Sometimes we have to collect the possible material then examine it to rule things in or out.

Many thanks for your support I do have the birth cert of Joseph Owen Fountain on 2nd Feb 1842 but I cannot find the marriage at all and its such an unusual middle name too

I have tried to look at variations but am not having much luck

There is a tree on Ancestry with lots of info but none about the marriage

I had a good look and couldn't see anything...the chances are if the married it would be in London seeing as Joseph & the children were born there....& Eliza probably came to London to work

Where have you Eliza's surname from & did you see the info that Ginny posted

Hi thanks for this info I do have the birth certs and on all of them its states that Eliza was definately Fountain when the children were born and not Manning but of course we all know that not everyone actually got wed

You have brought up Old Church and that is new info for me so thanks can you find a wedding at this church ?
