This gets a bit confusing. If this is the same Charles Usher I am looking for, the Mckerna one. He also married an Isabella( her surname being Quinn)in 1913.
Why are things never easy. Anyway it is nearly midnight so i am off to bed. I will look at this again tomorrow. Many thanks for your help will let you know if I unravel this.

Olwen, have you bought Charles and Isabella's marriage certificate please? It should give his age and his father's name and occupation.

Marriages Jun 1913
Johnson Isabella Usher W.Derby 8b 817
Usher Charles Johnson W.Derby 8d 817


Order it using Isabella's volume and page number as the volume number for Charles has been mistranscibed.

No haven't bought the marriage certificate but will order it today.

Also could anyone advise me how I can print out all this information so I can sit and read it a few times to try and get my head round it

It is absolutely mind boggling the help you all give.

lancashireAnn

lancashireAnn Report 9 Nov 2011 22:30

I usually just copy and paste the lot into a word doc and print

but someone else may have a better method

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 9 Nov 2011 22:49

If you want to keep it on your pccopy and paste as suggested and drop it into a word doc.

If you want to print it out, highlight the whole page of writing (starting from the word 'profile' ) and then 'control p' to bring the print page up and highlightthe word 'selection'. This will then only print out all the highlighted text and not the entire page :-)

Hi all. Just received marriage certificate and Charles's faher name was Francis Usher. i have managed to find him in the cenus back to 1851 and his parents were a James usher born 1821 in Dublin and a Bridget usher born 1817 in County Down Ireland. I cannot find any information for them. Any idea of any web addresses I could look on to try and get any information. many thanks Olwen xx

Looks like they may have married in Ireland as daughter Mary's birthplace is Ireland.

Unless of course Mary wasn't James daughter but Bridget's from a previous marriage?
