I have Francis Miles c1814 who according to census details was married to Frances (Fanny). I am trying to find their marriage. I have one for the April quarter of 1849, Southwell but cannot find who he married. Could anyone help find Frances? |

They are on the 1851 census with a son, Francis, a year old. The wife is Frances on this census and Fanny on the 1861 and 1871. |

There are 8 people for that marriage time and quarter, either they missed some off or she was called something else and just got called Fanny?, best send for a Birth certificate. |

Thank you all for your help. I can see i will have to get young Francis' birth cert to confirm whether the Francis marriage is correct. |
