Can't see a marriage in 1864.

Was this Jane's first marriage ?
Who else did she marry?

Hi

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am slowly but surely going nuts trying to find out about father and daughter.

The only information I have on James Moore is that he was a shoemaker and had a daughter called Jane.

Jane was born c1838, possibly, in Greenwich. I say possibly as in the 1881 census' she says she was born in Devon and in the 1901 census Plymouth, Devon ! She consistently calls herself Jane, even on her marriage certificates (she married twice) but on her eldest son's army enlistment papers in 1889, he names his mother as "Mary Ann Potesta".

Jane married Emanuelle Potesta in 1864 at St Alphege, Greenwich but before that I cannot find her in any census. I've looked for Jane Moore or Mary Ann Jane Moore etc but with no knowledge re her mother or any siblings am really struggling.

Thanks for any ideas / help.
