Hi all no lindsey i havent got ancestry it may of been another Alexandra i only have the free access on there at the moment that may of been what i ment if it was me.
I can confirm that it was Eliza Reading, not elizabeth Plank.
Melanie is that record a marriage between William and eliza then?
lulabelle that looks like a poss birth match as someone else had pointed out a record with mothers name leah.
so possible yes
Many thanks

May be Eliza had been married before. Have you checked for all the William Maslin marriage in the right areas? Or may be they never married. But as you say its odd that she doesnt turn up anywhere. Its back to the birth cert of the kids.

ok perhaps bodding is eliza's maiden name? as the gr member who told me about the incorrect wife has redding but i cannot find a redding marriage so bodding maybe?

maybe this is why i didnt have her heather, i will dig them certs out in the mean time i have deleted my info as you say unlikely devon couple went to london and vice versa, i know the census info you gave is my family just dont know what went wrong this end in the first place lol

G83 Report 21 Mar 2008 22:39

can someone also check the brother in law in the census pls thank you

Heather

Heather Report 21 Mar 2008 22:39

Thats why its always essential to buy the certs to confirm the line or you can be on a wild goose chase. I guess the baby Elizabeth born 1860 (in the 1861) must have died.

As per margarets msg if its 100% the william married surname hale then i have the wrong mum and dad as this ref number i have for some reason i think i have been given the wrong information in the first instance.

Heather

Heather Report 21 Mar 2008 22:34

I thought it was unlikely a Rotherhithe born couple would marry in Devon :)

I do think we have at least 2 couples on the go here and we need those certs to prove the lineage.
