Hi I'm trying to find my Gr Grandparents Henry Dodd and Mary Jane Coopers marriage. As of yet I have had no luck and have hit a wall and it's driving me crazy! Has anyone got any ideas? In the 1901 census: Henry Dodd head age 50 Dock Labourer born Essex, Halstead. Jane Dodd wife age 38 born Cambridgshire, Wisbech. James Dodd son age 8 born Essex, Custom House. Rose Dodd daughter age 5 born Essex, Custom House. Maud Dodd daughter age 2 born Essex, Custom House. Clarence Dodd (my grandmother, real name Clarrisa) daughter age 8 months born Essex, Custom House. All living at 21 Hill Street, West Ham. Mary Jane Cooper was still single in the 1891 census which reads: Mary A Cooper Servant? single age 21 or 27 (27 would make her the right person as shown above) occupation ??? born Wisbech, Cambs. Living at 21 High Street, Wisbech, Cambridgeshire. On my grandmothers (Clarissa Dodd) birth cert: Father Henry Dodd, Dock Labourer. Mother Mary Jane Cooper. Clarrisa was born at 21 Hill Street, West Ham. The same as above census. I have all the info I need and have searched now for months but can't find a marriage. Any help would really be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ursula.
