Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 10,611 Send Message	OP says Robert Ambrose was listed as a Railway Plate layer (deceased) at the 1887 marriage of Elizabeth, so above Robert wouldn't fit unless for some reason he was said to have died (maybe because of the second family Nyx suggested!). The census that show him have him as a Joiner/Carpenter. The marriage of daughter Mary Ann also 1887 shows him as a contractor deceased
