Can you find me Nellie Bell on 1901 and 1911

Sidami Report 15 Aug 2017 16:34

She was born 1885 in Leicestershire she married 1937 to Charles Martin but thinking she would be 42 then? I have her with a middle name of Chase wonder if she married before? Her father is George Edward Bell.



Is this her in 1891 - age slightly out? Do you know where in Leicestershire she was born?

If that's the Nellie you mean, the censuses are agreed that her YOB was 1889, not 1885.

How do you know her father's name? Do you have her marriage cert?

If this is the right Nellie she would have been 39 at Robins birth and 52 when she married Charles... ?

Montague S Martin married Bradford 1952.

Birth of the Nellie in the censuses above:

Births Jun 1889 (>99%)
Bell Nellie Blaby 7a 33


I don't see a Nellie in Leicestershire born 1885. Where did you find that date?

There's an Eleanor Ann born 1886, but her father's name was Amos.
