Melissa, if Josephine was born 1887 and her first child was born 1905 that would make her 18 years old when the child was born and not 14 yrs although it is unlikeley she would be married at 14 years, the legal age for girls to get married was 12 yrs

still think the marriage cert is your best bet

Could someone look at this one?

HOUSEHOLD HARRIS DORIS F 1906 5 Kensington London

given that Josephine was in Kensingtom and married R Mott there?

Kay????

Kay???? Report 10 Jan 2011 20:49


Think his name was

Fredrick James Arthur Hoskins,!Melissa
-------------------------------------------------------

bn 1907 Alexander Fredrick James Plummer?

bn 1908 Fredrick James HARRIS,,1911 hes in West Ham

If anyone has subs to FMP..they can use this against the original 1911census.co.uk site and it allows just a christian name search.

'might' be worth trying to eliminate them on the 1911?

Rose - Doris' marriage cert has her down as Mott, I think he may have adopted them all as they would only have been about 6,5 and 4 in 1911 when Josephine married Robert. It still doesn't explain where they were in 1911!
Porkie Pie - I was unable to find her in the 1901 census too, would that mean she was abroad? Surely unlikely for a girl of 14? I would have thought that being married at 14 would be unlikely too, even in 1901? Those are the correct marriage details though and I have sent off for her marriage cert (last night!)

Did either Doris or Mabel marry? Do you know that surname? Or the first names of their husbands?

I think you would need to buy her marriage cert to confirm her details and if she was married befor? as that would explain not being able to find a surname

Have you Doris Florence's marriage cert? I wonder if that has her birth surname on?

Melissa

Melissa Report 10 Jan 2011 19:47

it's just what we have always been told - I asked my mum and my aunts and those are the dates they came back with. I appreciate they may be incorrect as everything else seems to be a family secret!
I do have the birth record for the youngest sister, Bertha, who was Mott's child, born October 22nd 1911 - 6 months after Mott and Josephine Harris were married!
