In the list of marriages on p. 160 in 1880, it looks like David Brown married Hannah; in 1891:
Name: David Brown Age: 25 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1856 Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Hannah Gender: Male Where born: Berwickshire, Scotland Civil Parish: Byker County/Island: Northumberland Country: England Registration district: Newcastle Upon Tyne Sub-registration district: Byker
So that leaves Snowdon Miller marrying Annie Craig.
If this is Annie Craig in 1871:
Name: Annie Craig Age: 13 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1858 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: Joseph Mother's Name: Elizabeth Gender: Female Where born: Newcastle
then this sure looks like her in 1891:
Name: Annie Miller Age: 33 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1858 Relation: Wife Spouse's Name: Thomas Gender: Female Where born: Newcastle, Northumberland, England
Civil Parish: Ulgham Ecclesiastical parish: Ulgham St John Town: Stobswood County/Island: Northumberland Country: England
Registration district: Morpeth Sub-registration district: Bedlington ED, institution, or vessel: 26
Annie Miller 33 Annie Miller 6/12 Elizabeth Miller 3 Ellen Miller 5 - born in Inkerman James Miller 7 Joseph Miller 9 Margaret Miller 13 Thomas Miller 36 - coalminer William Miller 8
and this is that family in 1901, the father deceased:
Name: Ellen Miller Age: 15 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1886 Relation: Daughter Mother's Name: Annie Gender: Female Where born: Towlan, Durham, England Civil Parish: Longhirst Ecclesiastical parish: Longhirst St John Town: Longhirst County/Island: Northumberland Country: England Registration district: Morpeth Sub-registration district: Bedlington ED, institution, or vessel: 26 Household schedule number: 79
Annie Miller 43 Annie Miller 11 Elizabeth Miller 13 Ellen Miller 15 James Miller 17 Joseph Miller 19 Margaret Miller 27 William Miller 18
The only thing wrong here is that daughter Margaret was born before the Snowdon-Annie marriage.
But there is a James in the family who could be that James Snowdon Miller who married in 1908.
The household in 1881 looks like this:
Alice Lambert 16 Annie Miller 26 Harold Miller 2 John Thomas Miller 3 Margaret Miller Thomas Miller 26
Might Thomas (Snowdon?) have had a previous marriage, or am I all wet? More likely I'm all wet, I think.
Just my 0.02 loonie!
Get the marriage certificate!

I was all wet.
The household has a Lambert sister-in-law in it.
Marriages Mar 1877 Lambert Annie Newcastle T. 10b 82 Miller Thomas Newcastle T. 10b 82
No Millers for you! That was a different couple. But I'll leave them there so you know that Ellen is *not* yours.

sorry kathryn i sent that messagebefore seeing this this is the family im drawn to with an instinct the james would fit with that marriage of james snowdon miller because there is no death or birth for snowdon just a marriage . also do you think the annie might of used her first husbands name? as either lambert or craig its a mystery i think you are putting me on the track

Carol,
When a lady remarries it is customary to use her current name when going into her next marriage. So if she were born Smith, and then married a Jones, if Mr Jones dies and she marries again she would enter that marriage as a Jones not her original name.... and i have to add, mention of her original surname would only come from her father's name in the last column.... and if he was her step dad.... well..
This is what can make finding people harder...!! We love a challenge....
