I am still none the wiser!!! Still waiting for birth certificate to find out who Alices mother was. As for knowing who on earth Robert married...seems like he was a bit of a ladies man!

No apologies necessary Angela - it's just that we have all the info on here and, although it is all connected it needs a little more work to connect it correctly!

and Elizabeth Branton was Alices grandmother not Alice

Angela

Angela Report 9 Sep 2008 14:08

Then she married William Lambert OND 1900 in Beverley

Angela

Angela Report 9 Sep 2008 14:07

So they should be Alices parents but Adelaide went on to marry again and maybe the new husband didnt want Williams children living with them?? or maybe they were just staying with their grandparents

Angela

Angela Report 9 Sep 2008 14:05

That solves it
Adelaide Mann Branton married JFM 1892 William Thomas Webster

what about this one??

Sarah Ellen Branton married James Mann in JFM 1888 in Swaffham, Norfolk (where Robert originated from)!!

Angela

Angela Report 9 Sep 2008 13:53

So he had two children Robert and Sarah Ellen with the housekeeper Elizabeth Branton registered as Branton but shown as Mann on the census returns!!

Just to complicate matters further:

Robert on 1871:

This one is a possibility for Sarah Ellen on the 1871?

Registered as Branton, but probably Robert's child?

Births Sep 1870

Branton Sarah Ellen Beverley 9d 106

I think the birth cert of Alice or Elsie is needed to solve the problem
or Alice's marriage cert would give her father's name

Looks like the marriage
