Find Ancestors

I have reached a stop with this person. She was my Great Grandmother.From the 1901 census (she was Jane Stevens by then), I know she was born approximately 1862 in Whitechapel. My Grandfather's birth cert shows her as Jane Stevens formerly Hier but I can't find any other info relating to her. She was married to Robert and they had what I believe to be their first child in 1885. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Debbie

what was her father's name on her marriage cert.

I haven't been able to find a marriage certificate!

all the Hier's I'm finding are in Pembrokeshire, Wales!!!

Could this be first marriage?

Jane Mier - could be...wrongly misread by registrar originally, or by the transcriber. Do you know if your Robert had a second name of Samuel.

I looked at the original, definitely Mier not Hier.
Robert Samuel was a carman, 9 Union St., his father a pewterer. Jane's address was 9 Long St., her father was a bootmaker. Witnesses were Henry William Stevens & Amelia Mier.

There are quite a few baptisms for thier children on ancestry but i dont know how to transfer the details over sorry

jax

thank you again and yes I have the baptism details, thanks everyone, you've made my day.

Is it possible you've misread Hier on the birth certificate, could it be Mier.

Just found the marriage on ancestry, it was St. Leonard's, Shoreditch, Christmas Day,
Robert Samuel Stevens, 22,bachelor, gasman or barman@, 9 Union St., father Walter Stevens.
Jane Mier, 22, spinster, 9 Long St., father Frederick Mier.
both signed. Witnesses: Henry William Stevens (signed) and Amelia Mier (signed).

Dorothy

How do you manage to see the original certificate on-line? (I have a lot to learn!)

Yes I believe this is them Robert Samuel & Jane Mier, thank you

if they are london ones you can normally see the marriage and baptisms on ancestry 1813-1906 baptisms and 1754-1921 marriages if I am right

jax

Yes, it was the ones on Ancestry that I was looking at.
