I saw that too and wondered, you will really need to buy the birth cert.

I also can't find a birth for Jane Fleetwood or find her on the census.

i dont have the birth cert but the birth entry on ancestry
i have found this on free bmd and it shows a george williams and jane cartwright but i cant find a jane fleetwood marrying anyone called cartwright. presuming they are the same jane (i know thats a bad thing to do ) that would explain the different surnames ??
thanks linda

Do you actually have the birth cert, because Jane could have been married before and a marriage would then show in her married name.

Is this a possible,It is possible they weren't married even though they would put married 3 yrs on 1911 census.

No Jane Fleetwood to George Williams but have found a Jennie Fleetwood to George Williams.
