A millon thanks you are wonderful and amazing Kucinta,this is a dream come true, to discover Maria and who she was and her family. guess I need to do more Irish research to find them.
Thank u xx <3

I can't guarantee they married each other, just that they turn up on the same page.

You'd need to get the actual cert to be certain. John Holden is an Irish name as well as an English one, so don't get excited too early!

I never knew Holden was an Irish name!! thats something new I have learned, thank u I will get the cert, how do I check its her or him as I do not know any more on Maria side ???
S x :-D

You know from your previous research that John's father's name is William, and presumably John's profession will be soldier.

If those details tally then it's likely you have the right couple, and you should get to find out the name and occupation of Maria's father

If they don't tally, then at least you've ruled out this line of enquiry.

John was a colour sargent in the royal surrey regiment, when they had my grand father william John Holden in Surrey, so I need his birth cert,
then the marriage? I guess.. it gets confusing with so many williams and Johns
So my grandfather William John holden
Great grand father John Holden
Great great grand father William Holden
Grand mother Magarett Ann Bishop nee Holden
Great Grand mother Maria Mc Nabb
Nothing else on maria side
Seems right

I assumed you already had the birth cert for William John - isn't that where you got Maria McNabb's name from?

No i got the details off the birth cert my uncle peter has and he will not let me see it now and will not talk about it, but it is from the birth cert of william, I then found out about Maria.
I need a copy as took only basic details as over 20years ago since I saw the cert same for my Grand mother Margarett Bishop.

found out today that Maria Holden nee Mac Nabb died on the15 th may 1890 at the mitcham road barracks croydon she left John the sum of £132.+ This information is from the National probate calendar index of wills and administrations 1861 to 1941
Just need a grave now
Any ideas :-)
