I'm trying to tie up a few loose ends on my tree which are not absolutely essential to find, but with which I am going round in circles :-)

William Fishlock my gt gt grandfather married his 2nd ( and much younger) wife Annie Maria Wakeford in 1888 ( both his marriages confirmed by certs on Ancestry and I don't need anything on the Fishlocks) . Ann Maria Wakeford's brother John married Caroline Elizabeth Kerchevall

Marriages Dec 1893 (>99%)
Kerchevall Caroline Elizabeth Fulham 1a 493
Wakeford John Fulham 1a 493

1901 census John is at his parent's home
Name: John Wakeford
Age: 26
Estimated birth year: abt 1875
Relation to Head: Son
Gender: Male
Father: George Wakeford
Mother: Emily Wakeford
Birth Place: Chiswick, Middlesex, England

Meanwhile Caroline is listed ( either in error or something fishy going on) as wife of William Fishlock, at 140 Teviot Street

Name: William J Fishlock
Age: 57
Estimated birth year: abt 1844
Relation to Head: Head
Gender: Male
Spouse: Caroline E Fishlock

Mary E Herchivall 10 ( Caroline's sister surname is Kerchevall )

I Know that William J Fishlock is showing as a widower in 1911 living with his son and family and I 'suspect' but don't yet have the cert that his wife Annie may have died 1897 .

But I can't find either John Wakeford or Caroline Elizabeth Wakeford after 1901 or a re-marriage or death between 1901 and 1911 that fits with their ages that I haven't discounted.



baptism for Caroline Name: Caroline Kerchevall

Baptism Date: 19 Jul 1874

Found an old thread so please don't look for Mary Kerchevall as a means to find Caroline, as she was not still with her sister or family

On her birth reg it is Malyon but on her marriage and the census it is variously Anne ( 1871) and Annie M( marriage and 1891) .

That's the right one Mel, her mmn was Francis , checked against parents marriage and births of siblings.

as far as I know she did not marry again as William stated he was a widower in 1911, BUT as said I don't have a death cert, the closest is an Annie Fishlock death Deaths Dec 1897 (>99%)
Fishlock Annie 36 Whitechapel 1c 226

I think I will get that as a long shot.

the age is out to birthdate but does tie in with her age given on 1891 census... both she and William were less than accurate about ages, especially his when they married!

I can't see any other John Wakeford born c1875, with father George, in 1881 census.

Of course that George might have died before 1881.

They don't' seem to have emigrated, either.
