Sorry I am back took longer than I thought to collect parcel. Got lost and stuck in traffic/

Mother is Alice Louisa

Making the year they married about 1901

I can only find a marriage for 1901 to a Barrup for a Harding.

I believe I have the right certs and cenus as the George is a green grocer on all three.

PH

that's what I first noticed ... the diffeerence between mother;s name from birth certificate, and the name on the census


Explanations???


1. George had married yet again

2. We have 2 different George's

Clafification

On the 1911 Cenus Harolds mother is Alice Harding aged 30
Harolds birth certificate shows the mother as Alice Louisa Harding frormelry White

Same name on both birth and census without her middle name.

same for Harolds father George.

I could only find one Harold Henry Harding on free bmd which is the certificate I have/ The 1911 census matches the area.

Possible birt h for George found on free bmd

Harding George John Dorchester 5a 329

I would have thought that George was married befor because of the age different and the fact the daughter Louisa is 24 and the mother Alice 30.

I have had no luck in finding a marriage with help also thanks.

Are my findings wrong or incorrect?

Well, now that we have sorted out that the mother was not Lavinia,
I keep going back to this marriage but it doesn't really make sense
when she should be 'White' ?

On the 1911 George has a Daughter Louisa aged 24 years. Could it be possible that George was not actually free to marry Alice as he was still married to his first wife and so George and Alice just "claimed" to be married.

If it were me, I would be looking more closely at the marriage of Geroge Harding and Jane Eliza Jeffries. I think that there is a good chance that the Louisa with Jane on the 1891 census is the same Louisa that is with George in 1911. I suspect that Jane and her husband possibly just went their seperate ways and that she wasn't actually widowed in 1891.

You could very well be right there, because if i remember correctly (I will double check) there does not appear to be a death for Emily Louisa Harding between 1891 and 1901 in the Bournemouth area.

Oh my you lot have been busy

It could very well be the fact they didnt marry. Trust both my husanbds grandparents not to have got married but lived together.

Sorry for the confusion and headaches.

Your help has been much appreciated in this matter.

Which Marriage should I be looking at getting.

Is it the one to Eliza Jane Jefferies.

Or should I be trying to find one for Emily Louisa.

I cannot find the family on the 1881 Census

So my best bet is to order that marriage then.

Thanks

I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to get Fredericks Birth cert as he appears as a Wtiness on Harold Henry Harding and Jane Elizabths Plants marraige so it seems plausable this is his brother born 1902 Bournemouth.
