I didn't see Joseph in 1871, but gave up with 1861 having drawn a complete blank - will check tonight. Is the Jane you refer to as possible wife of Joseph - Jane Groom?

K,

on the marriage cert there is also the name
William Andrew Cartwright ~ and underneath Registra but this is in with the witness details??
Joseph Sutton is the Minister.

I have been trying to find the link all day and nothing!!

Also if you follow Joseph Bebington (who is deceased on the certificate) in the 1871 cencus there is a Ralph Bebington living with him in Well Street but he is not with Jane ~ who also lives in Well Street. I am 99% this is Jane's husband.

This one is very confussing

Excellent - have just returned home and was going to check it - It did seem strange. Do post details when the marriage cert arrives!

As Elizabeth listed her birth as Tattenhall I checked the images for 1851 the year before she was born and found only one female Bebbington in the village - Mary Bebbington aged 33 unmarried, a pauper who was born in the village. She was a lodger with William Speen and family. Just a thought but could she be Elizabeth's mother?

Elizabeth lists her birth place as Tattenhall in the 1881 census ang this birth is in the Reg District that covers Tattenhall - there is also a birth in the June quarter, but it has the same ref no which is rather strange - Have not checked the actual images

I never looked at the 1871 cos on the 1881 John was down as SIL

I have looked for an Elizabeth Beddington & couldn't see one, nor one for Groom

I have this horrid feeling that on her marriage cert there will be no father named!!!

Hi Julie,

on 1871 cencus it says Jane is Elizabeth's grandmother.

i am waiting for the marriage cert to arrive and have not got a birth cert yet as there seem to be a few born around that time!!!

Also in 1871 cencus there is a John Davies living with them but he was born in Liverpool not in Wales as mentioned on later cencus for him!!!

Here the 1851....I'd say Jane was a bit too old to be Elizabeths Mum........Maybe 1 of Jane's daughter is Elizabeths mum and Jane raised her

Have you Elizabeths M/C or B/C

Hi All,

I will start at the begining!

I received the following information from a marriage cert

Andrew Forsyth Michie (father Andrew ~ seed merchant)
&
Lizzie Davies (father John ~ coachman)

married at St John Baptist Church Chester on 24th Dec 1912

Ada Mary Thompson

from this information I found this family in 1901 cencus
with no Lizzie but she was there in 1891

I have followed the family back and in 1881 Jane Groom is head of the house and John is son in law

So I have followed her (Jane Groom) back and also found that
John Davies married Elizabeth Bebington ~I have sent for the marriage certificate.

In the 1871 cencus Elizabeth is listed as Grandaughter and in 1861 nursery to Jane Groom.

I am trying to find a connection between Jane Groom and Elizabeth but can't seem to find 1 I have been searching for a couple of days and wondered if a fresh pair of eyes may shed some light!

Thankyou

Kirsty
