It looks as though the 1891 census found previously is not right if her father was Richard?

In 1891 census Ellen is not with Richard which would fit in with the hospital entry.

Lynkski you AMAZING person!! where did you find this???!

Original states 9 children born, 2 died

I found details of the marriage on familysearch.org.

Im very confused with 1901 census..

George Jay is married to Mary A Jay.

The relationship to the head with Richard and Emma Jay are in-laws.

So im taking it that George Jay isnt there son?
but isnt that s bit of a coincidence that both of there surnames are the same? and that is the same name as his son?

I found George and Mary's marriage certificate.

George Jay
Year of Marriage 1893
Quarter of Marriage Oct-Nov-Dec
Registration District Keynsham
Registration County Somerset
Spouse's Surname Only available for records after 1912

Spouse Match

George Jay married one of the people below:

Florence HAWKINS
Mary Jane ANSTEY
Albert KIBBEY


but how come Richard is an in-law to George the head of the household when its his son?

Here they are in 1911 census -

The 1901 census could be transcribed incorrectly. The information could have been given by Mary Ann??

There is also this marriage which is actually for Mary Ann and matches more accurately??

Marriages Sep 1892 (>99%)
Caple Mary Ann M Bristol 6a 12
Jay George Bristol 6a 12

The certificate would tell you who the father's are?

Better still, familysearch has done it again -

Still looking for John Morris Moralley and his father Hugh Uriah Moralley???

Haven't found them in the census yet?

There is a tree on Ancestry that has Hugh Uriah Moralley in it and if the tree owner is correct then Uriah (born c1828) in 1841 census is Hugh's father -

I think that Urias born in 1851 is actually Hugh Uriah Moralley because the tree on Ancestry has his born c1851.

brilliant!! I am mainly looking for the Morralley tree. No one in our family have ever been able to get far..

just out of interest in the Jay family it says Emma Jay lost 2 children is there anyway to find that out?? it says they were born? i was wondering if it was one of the 7 children i have in my tree?

I think that this is the marriage of John Morris Morralley's (1879) parents -

Marriages Sep 1878 (>99%)
Morrallee Uriah Llanfyllin 11b 265
Morris Jane Llanfyllin 11b 265

Fantastic!!!!! All our family spell our last name Morralley apart from my father and his wife and children who spell is Morrallee.

Its believed that the original spelling is Morralley but a groom on his wedding day was very nervous and had a drink to 'steady his nerves' but ended up drinking too much and signing his name wrong on the registar.

if the story is true it may look like Uriah was the nervous groom!!
