first wife deserted him and I am trying to find a record of his first marriage. This name was given as bride of Francis George Hutchings but he did not have a G in the name since his grandfather.

The place and approx time would help. If its pre c1920 the you should be able to find it on FreeBMD

Lillian

Lillian Report 5 Sep 2010 11:08

date approx 1901, this is a guess, area unknown as I think he was in the army at the time.

from a census Martha Rose Prosser from 1908 census. The G was actually left out of my father and his father name so may not be right. thank you so much for your patience

why not start again with his birth and come forward from there, If you have found a marriage but say he wasnt Francis GEORGE then maybe you are putting the wrong interpretaion on that being a marriage for your Francis

.a rose prosser was the bride of a Francis George Hutchings in 1908 marriages, but he had no G in his name. That had disappeared since his gt. grandfathers time.

Does the G refer to Hutchins/Hutchings?
(Names can be incorrectly recorded)
Thanks

Flick Report 5 Sep 2010 11:20

There wasn't a census in 1908...........who is Martha Rose Prosser?

Which document do you have for 1908 with the details you have given?

And PLEASE....tell us WHERE these people were living...............

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 5 Sep 2010 11:21

so probably not your Francis marriage especially as the surname has an additional g in it.
Did he have children by the first wife ? if so their birth cert/s would tell you her name

Lillian

Lillian Report 5 Sep 2010 11:21

birth date 15th March 1886. Dylwyn Road, Sydenham, London. He was married to my mother in July 34 1934 after having 4 children with her. His first wife had deserted him and they had to wait 7 years for it to become legal for them to marry

Flick Report 5 Sep 2010 11:21

The marriage record I posted includes a woman named PROSSER.................

AHH so its not the George you are querying but the spelling of the surname HutchinGs,

The only way you would know if its him would be to ger the cert which should name his father,
Bedwellty in wales though is a long way from Lewisham in South East London.

Will take a look at the 1911 census to see If can spot them
