still no sign of a marriage though!
he was 32 in 1891 and as no marriage found am pondering on maybe he was married in italy therefore not able to marry Bessie ??

thank you all so much for your hard work i do have a bit of what you have found and her maiden name is definately norris as i have a lot of info on her family in wareham dorset,maybe because her family disaproved as they went to wales instead of staying there in wareham.
thanks all again
