Thanks so far - I need to sleep now(night in New Zealad) will get back on line when I get up in case anyone has found any of them after 1881

Peter

Thanks - that is the right Caroline - John Peters is a fringe/ribbon maker - he remarries to harriet Brown after Rosanna's death

Peter

(couldn't see the 1872 Marriage image for John, also checked the Burials for Caroline, but not there, shame!)

Chris :)

I don't have any marriages for any of them...the one I found in someone else's tree on ancestry is disproved by looking at the marriage cert - wrong father (name and occupation)

Father's name is correct but occupation is incorrect (musician)

Poss birth for Blanch

Oh that's why. They didn't marry until December 1851. I was getting really confused.

I don't have any marriages for any of them...the one I found in someone else's tree on ancestry is disproved by looking at the marriage cert - wrong father (name and occupation)

It's odd that half the children vanish between 1871 and 81 and the rest vanish after 81 - as do the parents

Peter

Peter

Haven't found any of them beyond 1881 that you posted. What marriage do YOU have for Edward Arthur?

Jude

Thank you - the marriage looks hopeful - but where are the children???

Peter

Choccy - wondered if it was a second marriage for her....
