Yes Fiona, Mary's father's name is Charles in 1867 and his occupation was Plasterer. Is it possible to get any of those images? If you have to pay for them please don't. |

If her marriage certificate says her father was Charles I think we have it all sewn up.........or are we missing anyone? |

Yes that looks like her! Right that would mean the Rowe family in 1871 could be right. Unless there are any other John Rowe's from Silverton. |

That still leaves Mary Ann Rowe b. 1845 in Bristol missing though. Perhaps its worth looking for her mother and brother in 1871? Her mother is Mary Lewis b. abt 1815, Llangibby, Monmouth Her brother is Frances Lewis, b. abt 1848, Bristol |

Would it be worth trying to find Mary's mother in 1871 to see if Mary is with her? |

I have Alice's parents marriage already. They married 31st August 1867 in Newport, Monmouthshire. Their names were John Rowe and Mary Ann Lewis. Mary came from Bristol and in 1881 their daughter Florentine/Florrie was at Mary's mother's house in Bristol, in the area of St. Philip and Jacob (out). |

It does say on the census for the Rowe family in 1871 that John is Married. Fiona. |

Do you have Alice's birth certificate with mothers maiden name? Might help to try and trace when her parents married. Fiona. |

I must admit its just from the census returns but she does have a brother born approx 1871 (according to census returns) so I had hoped she'd be around by 1871. There does seem to be a strong connection with Mary's family in Bristol though. In 1881 one of her children is with her mother. Perhaps Mary and her new daughter (as it was her first child) were with Mary's mother, Mary Lewis (b. abt 1815 in Monmouthshire) and John was alone? Thank you both for all your hard work though, they're a tough family to crack! |

John's father William is also listed as a postilion in 1867 on his son's marriage certificate. |

The second 1871 search I'd like is for John Rowe, born about 1845 in Silverton Devon. His wife is Mary/Mary Ann Rowe b abt 1845 in Bristol. They should also have a daughter by the same name born abt 1870 also in Bristol. His occupation in 1867 is Postilion which I understand is an occupation to to with the postal service. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
