There is also one closed record with them.

Maud's birth certificate would confirm her mother's maiden surname.

This looks like Maud's marriage and her father is Thomas John Burr (one of the witnesses). I feel pretty sure that we have the correct marriage for Thomas and Annie.

Lesley, if you don't have the marriage, can I ask please how you know that Thomas's father was William?

Hello everybody. Thanks for getting back so quick. Thomas 's father was William b.1840 -1890. So I'm not sure if it is Annie Beatrice Guyatt. I know the 1911 census is correct and also the 1901 census. It would make sense geographically and age wise if it was Annie Beatrice especially as it is Annie B. I wil revisit my records and see what they throw up. The army record was interesting Maddie. Thank you. When Thomas puts down next of kin is it just "Father and address Johnsfield, High Street, Hemel Hempstead?"Just a thought. I'm brain storming myself. If I have Thomas ' s father wrong I will have to rewrite my tree. Perhaps he is John Thomas Burr? I will have to look for a birth record. Thank you all. Regards Lesley :-)

Love the "Army accouterments maker" bit Chris :-)

Annie seems to have been a little vague with her age...

Malyon, you don't think the marriage found is correct?

This looks like the Annie who married in 1912 and Her age is wrong. And the Thomas Burr is with her family in 1911 and his age is wrong too.

Hello everybody. I wonder if anyone has any ideas as to where I go next in tracing my Great Gran. I have a 1911 census with Thomas Burr on it born 1866 married to an Annie also born 1866. They have two children. James born 1898 and Maud born 1896 (my Gran). (They did have 4 but 2 died) They say that they have been married 21 years (so 1891 or near as). In 1891 Thomas Burr is single at the time of the census. I cannot find a marriage certificate for a Thomas Burr and Annie - except for one in Altrincham, Cheshire. This is not them. Annie states that she was born in Peckham. Thomas was born in Hertfordshire. I did think at one time it was Annie Bates but that is now unlikely.Possibly never married?? Anyone any ideas?
Thank you all so much. Lesley Sherman :-D
