Find Ancestors

Julie I think you need to get the marriage cert. to find his fathers name and it will possibily give his age and then post on here so we can look for at least a father and son. in census to confirm the right family,my mum always thought her family only came from London, only for me to find they had moved there from Suffolk!!

Hi again ,just having a look on Birth index and census cannot see any with birth Southampton.a few in Hampshire though

These are all Hampshire - take your pick!

Hi
Right I have spoken to 2 more members of the family and I have the following.
my gt gramp was Robert Frederick Marsh born around 1877 and in southampton, they are all sure without doubt he was a southampton man, he married emily goddard and had twin boys born in 1903 call robert and frederick after himself, now my auntie said he died after her mum (my nan) who die in 1943 because he lived with them but no-one knows when he die. before all this and in 1926 gt gramp lived in 51 bevois st southampton with son frederick and his wife win but no site goes that far on addresses so I got stuck there.. does this help anymore then before, gt nans death cert just says husband robert marsh!!

Between 1870-1880 no robert frederick or Robert F only the following
Robert George Marsh 1877 Oct-Nov-Dec Portsea Island (1837-1900) Hampshire

Robert Percy Marsh 1875 Oct-Nov-Dec Alresford Hampshire

Thomas Robert Marsh 1873 Apr-May-Jun Portsea Island (1837-1900) Hampshire
His marriage cert may have his full name i think you have the ref. for that don't you.
