Trying to find the name of George Hemmings spouse in 1891, have found a marriage reference in Free BMD but gives no spouses name,date given is 1891 and district is Barton Regis which seems to be a part of Bristol at that time, can anyone suggest anything without sending for the certificate? Thanks Lynne

Lynne is this the marriage: Marriages Sep 1891 (>99%) Armitage Joshua Dickenson Barton R. 6a 293 Hemmings George William Barton Regis 6a 293 Pidgeon Emily Sarah Barton R. 6a 293 Quarrell Gertrude Maud T Barton R. 6a 293 Have you found your George on the 1901 census? With either a wife Emily or Gertrude?

~~~~~waves~~~~~ to Debi! lol I've found a possible in 1901 but need more details on George to confirm

LOL......we're just toooooooooooooo good at this LOL

Snap! lol Just need Lynne to come back with George's details now!

Hi Jeanette, Yes this looks like a possibility as the wifes name was l think Emily/Emma. They had several children and older ones were Robert , Edward, Samuel , Maud, Rose, Lillian most gratefull for help with the 1901 as have no credits and want to know if this is the right family before doing anything else, Many thanks Lynne

Sorry didn't scroll down fast enough, thank you Debbie for that definatly right one, was there an adress? Lynne

Cannot find George on the 1881, was suspecting that his name wasn't George, but it is, where is he? Lynne

Hi Lynne Well this one certainly seems to fit with what you know then. Of course it is always best to make sure for definite either with certs or by looking at the Parish Registers Jeanette x

I agree with Jeanette - never assume that this is the right couple - always get the certs were ever possible as this is far more accurate George is a BLACKSMITH......the address looks like it's NIBLETTS HILL???? Defiantely HILL for the latter part

Well I don't know what Debi makes of the address on the 1901, but it looks like Nibletts Hill to me! George gives his occupation as Blacksmith by the way

LOL............. Jeanette me too............ scruffiest handwritting I ever did see lol

By the way Emily - George's wife was born: Bristol; Clifton

Barton Regis is now Clifton as my descendants came from there.Julie

Shocking writing isn't it Debi! lol 1881.....Now there's nothing obvious jumping out here Lynne, so this is where it would really pay off to get the wedding cert. That would give George's father's name and help to go further back
