Morning everyone.

Emily Kate Summerton born 1844 Romsey, Hampshire

Married....(1876 Alverstoke, Hampshire)

Marriages Dec 1876 (>99%)
Summerton Emilie Kate Alverstoke 2b 1037
WRIGHT Fred Alverstoke 2b 1037

Frederick George Wright (aka Fred Wright) born 1846 Peasinhall. Suffolk (Yoxford, Suffolk on the 1891 census)

For some reason the 1891 census gives Emily's birth year as 1850
The 1901 census gives her birth year as 1851.

Here they are in 1891.........

Fred Wright Head Married Male 45 1846 Retired Farrier R A Yoxford, Suffolk, England
Emily K Wright Wife Married Female 41 1850 - Romsey, Hampshire, England

And in 1901.......

Fred Wright Head Married Male 53 1848 Provison Dealer Suffolk, England
Emily Kate Wright Wife Married Female 50 1851 - Hampshire, England
Wm Spence Boarder Single Male 42 1859 Gas Fitter Durham, England

Please can anyone spot them on the 1881 census record.

greyghost Report 6 May 2017 12:41

No luck with 1871 - have found Father with Albert;
and ? Edward (as Edwin Somerton) married in London to Clara, but no Emily.

PricklyHolly

PricklyHolly Report 6 May 2017 12:42

No that's not her Malyon.

She is the wife of George Wright.......Brother to the Head Of House...William Wright.

PricklyHolly

PricklyHolly Report 6 May 2017 12:45

Yes that is the correct 1871 GreyGhost.

She is probably a servant somewhere.

PricklyHolly

PricklyHolly Report 6 May 2017 12:48

Husband Fred died 1904 Chester Le Street, Durham.........which is where they were living in 1901.

I can't spot Emily on the 1911 census......and yet i can't seem to find an appropriate death between 1901--1911 for her either!

greyghost Report 6 May 2017 12:49

The 1881 posted by Malyon has her born Christchurch not Romsey as per bmd/ OP
A check of births of Mary Elizabeth and Margaret Ethel shows mmn Nicholas
