I've just found another surname in my family and would anyone be kind enough to do a look-up please. This is the person: Emma Charlotte Curzon. All I have on her is she married Frank Edwards in WELLINGBOROUGH June 1888. They then lived in Earls Barton, Northants I would like to find her age & place of birth and who her parents were and maybe even their parents' I think Frank Edwards was born in Knotting, Beds. So Emma may come from Bedfordshire or Northants. Any help would be much appreciated. Many Thanks

Thank you so much Gary, Maureen & Roy. Maureen (Glitterbaby) I think you helped me ages ago and you found the marriage for me in Wellingborough. I'm trying now to go back & make a start on researching the Curzon's. Do you think the one you've found in Earls Barton is the right one, with the middle initial being P? It perhaps maybe that they got the initial wrong on that census. It must be the right one. What do you think? Many, many thanks again for your help. There's not a lot to do on a miserable Bank holiday is there? A good time to catch up on the research! Best wishes Zillah

Maureen,Hi again My last reply crossed with your last 2 entries Those 2 surnames make it more confusing. The Courlong family has the spouse as Estha so perhaps that's a different family. Gt Addington is very close to Earls Barton. UPDATE SO IS DODDINGTON Cousins is nearer to Curzon so perhaps that's Emma's family Zillah
