The lady who is the head in the 1911 census is Florence Maud Proctor's sister. So I presume that Florence was born in the same area. When i was looking on ancestry one day i found a Florrie Proctor living with Edward Brown but i cannot remember which census it was.

Couldn't see the other family members in 1911

Do you know where and when Florence Maud Proctor was born? I can't see a birth reg'n for her...................unless she was born in Brighton.....and married at the age of 16

The marriage cert will tell you his age, his father's name (if he knew him) and his father's occupation

I am trying to research my husband's great grandfather. His name was Edward Brown, I don't know when or where he was born all I do know is that he married a Florence maud Proctor in Spilsby in 1901. I know that they had aleast five children two of them I know thier names. One was John Hubbard Brown born 1907 and the other was Florence Hubbard Brown born 1908/9.
The other children where born before 1907.
If anybody can help with this I would be very grateful.
Regards Carmen
