Can anyone see a marriage for Agnes' parents or find them on 1881 census I don't seem to be able to find either.

Plus also if anyone spots Agnes on 1911 that would be appreciated.

Thanks

I am sure the 1891 & 1901 census' for Agnes are correct as on her marriage certificate the witnesses are her sister Martha and her husband Joseph SHEPPARD so that all fits but the marriage and birth of Goerge MENNIE doesn't.

Umm now I am wondering if this is a different Agnes as I have the son's birth certificate and he is definitely named George HORWOOD no father names given.

Ooh Helen I wonder if that is my Agnes, it appears to be but yet on her marriage in 1914 to George Henry ATTRILL she lists herself as a spinster.

I didn't even look for another marriage beings as she put spinster, that will teach me.

Thanks for that.

Hi

Could I possibly have any census details available relating to:-
Agnes HORWOOD born 1885 Hackney, London

The only other details I have are that her father's name was:-
Henry HORWOOD.

Agnes married 1914 in Shoreditch and at the time she had a 2 year old son named George HORWOOD but gave her status as Single.

Thanks
