You could look for all three men's names in the 1841 or 1851 census and look to see if one of them has a wife called Phoebe.

Just had a look and can't find one of them with a Phoebe at the moment. I'll keep looking.

1851 - she is married - but the age is wildly wrong

Name: Pheobe Miller
Age: 33
Estimated birth year: abt 1818
Relation: Visitor
Where born: Beer, Devon, England

Civil parish: Seaton and Beer
County/Island: Devon
Country: England

Registration district: Axminster
Sub-registration district: Lyme
ED, institution, or vessel: 6c
Neighbors: View others on page
Household schedule number: 49
Household Members: Name Age
Samuel Miller 62 Fisherman
Fanny Miller 63
Mary Miller 23
Pheobe Miller 33
Elizabeth Miller 7
Mary Miller 4
Emely Miller 1


Elizabeth, Mary, Emely, appear to be Phoebe's daughters - they are all 'visitors'

the ages as you say are way way out

Freewheel

Freewheel Report 29 Dec 2009 15:46

So - who are you looking for?

A woman born c1803, as you say, would probably have married long before 1838

How did you get back to her?

You should be working backwards, step by step, to get reliable results

David Report 29 Dec 2009 15:48

Sorry, david, but you can't have a birth cert for 1803.

Certs were not issued for ANY events until July 1837
