I trying to find the maiden name for Eliza Jackson born 1832 Sudbury Suffolk (I think)
I managed to find her on the 1861 census but obviously only her married name was on there.

Eliza married James Jackson and had 3 children,
Jesse 1855 born Manchester
Jonathan 1854 born Manchester
Jeremiah 1862 born Manchester

Any other info on James Jackson her husband born in 1830, would be a bonus.

Any questions please ask.

Thank you everybody.

Mike Jackson

Also I checked freebmd and it doesnt show spouse name, is this right or am I doing something wrong.

Thanks again.

If the MMN isn't recorded, you haven't got the CERTS - you've only looked at the index

MMN isn't on the GRO index until after 1911, although Lancsbmd have transcribed some MMN info. NOT, however, in the case of the Jacksons - I have checked

So have you actually purchased / seen Jeremiah's birth certificate?

Ref. to order from GRO

Flick Report 28 Feb 2011 15:35

Yes, it's right...no spouse name unitl after 1911.

Just look for the marriage using the KNOWN info...............

Flick

Flick Report 28 Feb 2011 15:37

It doesn't take too much imagination to work out that Richard Mills could be Eliza's son prior to her marriage................
