Hello,

I have possible marriages of two sisters as follows:

Martha Ann Robinson in 1896 Cockermouth Cumberland to either Charles Cousins or John Thwaites,

Elizabeth Hannah Robinson 1890 Cockermouth Cumberland to either Joseph Moffat or Harry Veary Thorp.

Could someone please check the 1891/1901 census to see which husband is the correct one.

Thanks in advance,

Gillian

Hi Elouise,

Yes that looks right thanks.

Martha was born 1867 Cockermouth and Elizabeth 1866 Cockermouth.

Could you paste the 1901 entry please.

Thanks,

Gillian

In 1901 I've found a JOHN THWAITES [occ Coachman] born Durham living with Martha Thwaites and daughter Jane aged 3 yrs old living Flimby, Cumberland REF RG13/4886 Page 4.
Cant find any marriage for other sister yet.
