Albert Edward Goodchild married Elizabeth Mansell in 1889 as found in BDM. I do not know their ages. I'm struggling to find a census entry for them. I know they lived in Battersea and at 1901 they had at least 3 children, one son was also called Albert. They had another child in Dec 1902 called Martha Annie. When Martha was born they lived at 31 Hanbury Road, Battersea and Albert (father) was an Engine Turner (journeyman). If anyone can find this entry please help me. Thank you very much. Melanie.

Mel - of the 3 children they had by 1901, were they all born not long before - what I mean is would they all be under 5?? Young Albert in particular - have you a year of birth for him??

Not sure? Bearing in mind Albert & Elizabeth had been married for 23 years before having Martha I would presume their ages between 1 & 23?????

Mel - please tell me 23 years was a typo!!!! You've said they married in 1899, had 3 kids by 1901 then Martha in 1902. Apart from young Albert, what were the names of the other 2 kids they had by 1901??

Sorry You Guys!!! Elizabeths maiden name was Mansell. Their marriage was in the September (Quarter) in 1889 in Lambeth. 13 years. Have just been checking my scraps of paper and seen Alberts middle name was Edward. We believe one of the daughters could have been Irene. My math is crap!

The 1901 entry that Esta found with Robert as head. I've tried on the government 1901 census (in case ancestry are mistranscribing again). I just keep coming back to that family Esta found.
