Off to order the marriage cert for Nicholas Lacey

Candis

I now in possesion of the MC fo Nicholas Lacey and Alice Lavinia White

I am just concentrating on Alice

Married 01 May 1915. Alice is 35 a spinster. Occupation a Domnestic Servant lving at 10 Butcher/Bachelor Road Coventry.

Father Henry William White deceased boat maker?

Wittnessess W W Ward and Arthur Lloyd.

The handwriting for Alice seems to match that on the Birth cert I have for Harold her son.

Candis

closest I can get to the address in 1911 census at the moment

Address: 10 Butcher Row Coventry

Name Relation Condition/ Yrs married Sex Age Birth Year Occupation Where Born

PODESTO, Lazarus Head Married M 55 1856 Furniture Remover And Confectionery Carman Genoa Italy
PODESTO, Ethel May Wife Married 3 years F 31 1880 Assisting In The Business Ironbridge Shropshire
BALDACCI, Antonia Labourer Widower M 45 1866 Labourer For Furniture Removing Italy
TRANTER, Elizabeth Servant Single F 21 1890 Domestic Servant Meriden Warwickshire

I may be wrong here but I think the writing and signatures on certs are not always the actual originals and that marriage certs at least may be copies made by the registrar/ priest

Hi tempest

I think you are correct it does say row.

You managed to find Alice on the 1911 census with George her age does fit so it looks like this could well be the right Alice?

Candis

From the 1881 census.
Henry WHITE Head M Male 23 Wesley, Devon, England Shipwright
Mary A. WHITE Wife M Female 26 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England
Alice WHITE Daur Female 3 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England
Ellen W. A. WHITE Daur Female 2 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England
Matilda WHITE Daur Female 3 m Rotherhithe, Surrey, England
59 Paradise St Rotherhithe, Surrey, England

Does this look like it could be the right Alice with her parents.

I googled 10,Butchers Row Coventry then clicked onto images.

It is very strange there is a post card posted April 1915 from a Alice.

Have a look it seemed really strange to me,seeing as we were looking for a Alice.

Do you know what it was called as I cannot seem to find it or what page it on.

Thanks
Candis

Hi Candis - think this could be the link: http://apostcardaday.blogspot.com/2010/04/butcher-row.html

Yes thats it MarieCeleste
I tried to post a question about who it was addressed to but it didn't do anything.
