If you look at the original (free to do on FreeBMD) you'll see that the Vasey one is mistranscribed. Page number is actually 334.

It seems that Thomas Charles Power b 1888 married May in 1910 in Sept qtr West Ham ref from Freebmd 4a 234

There are 2 entries for a May

May A Vasey
May Russell

A tree on Ancestry says May Russell but what would the Vasey connection be please ?

Many thanks

Thomas Power married Mary Ann Harding at St Michaels Hackney in Dec 1882. As far as I know they were both born in the East End of London. The marriage record is on ancestry, in fact I have the original cert.

I have found them with 4 children Mary Thomas Hannah and Louisa on 1901 census in Buxton Street Mile End.

Can anyone find them in 1891? Thomas was a brush Maker born about 1859. Mary about 1862 They would have had the first two of these children by then

thanks
