Robert Disley 45 BOARDER<<<<<< Married

I spent hours and hours some time ago backtracking Lisa's family directly with her and sent all the paperwork to her. Usual advice to check info herself, all sources identified and buy certificates where necessary.

She has all the information found this morning, but her online tree is rather confused.

Alice Wallworth married Robert Disley, they had 3 children, there's then one who I didn't find a baptism for so ? Father, 2 who were baptised with Edward Waddington named as Father and finally George William and James, no Father. (Banns called for Alice and Edward 1883, Alice finally married Edward Waddington in 1906, but somewhere along the lines he was a bigamist/Fathering children not with his wife).

Thanks for that Greyghost

Hi sorry about me back tracking I was held quite a lot by gray ghost and she was great the reason I have asked again is because I have been on ancestry and it keeps saying I have wrong parents and gran parents sorry to be a pest just wanted to make sure I had write info xx
