Dee
the witnesses are William Cowell and Susan Cowell
(think that is what the names say) Cowell looks 100% and so does William Susan could be something else

It doesn't always say deceased on a marriage certificate, if a father has already died.
My great grandfather had been dead nearly 25 years when his daughter married, but he is recorded there with his occupation, just as if he was alive, with no mention of being deceased.

On that 1851 census return, Mary is a widow and Alexander is a Blacksmith............... what was his occupation on his marriage cert???



All the others are stated as brother........... but on the original image it looks like Boarder.

Hi could anybody help me please I have changed my request as I dont wont to put another thread on regarding the same person. Thanks for help from this site I have the census for Alexander king and I have been told his mother was from scotland but I am sitll a bit stuck on Alexander's birth date

He should have been born in 1833 Woolwich Kent ? but I still can not find no birth record for him

I have his marriage certificate when he married a Nancy Richards on June 5th 1854 where he was being stated as 21. and both living at 25 King Street Clerkenwell Middlesex,

According to his mariage cert his father was William King who I still can not find on any census but if i got Alexander's birth records I may be then to be able to find a marriage between his parents William and Mary


Thanks for all you time
Debbie

NEW POST BUT TO DO WITH THE SAME FAMILY

I am trying to find the marriage between William King and Mary ?
as you can see from the information already given I cant find Alex birth so I am trying to find a marriage of his parent's to try and give me a lead with my family. I could be wrong but im thinking they could have been married in 1831 or before possible in woolwich kent

I have been looking on Ancestry but I have not picked anything up maybe a pair of fresh eyes will see what ive been missing

Hope somebody will see what ive been missing

Thanks V much
Deb
