Hi all,
I am hoping someone would be kind enough to help me with a small puzzle on my tree.

I have Claude Harry Stephens born 1879 Bristol, Accountant, he is married to Kathleen Isabella Quick 1872. i have looked for the parents for both these people and have:-
Claude H Stephens- Father Henry Stephens, Mother Annie Elizabeth Quick, they married 1867 Bristol
Kathleen Isabella Quick- Father Francis Quick, I cant find any more information about his marriage etc but i think i have found his father and mother, but if this information is right would that make Claude and Kathleen first cousins! i am going round in circles here and hope someone can help me in any way, many thanks

There are some records in Bristol for the Quick family on there

Hi Bren
Thank you for the reply, I will go and look again, some of the information i have is from that site:) but just to clarify, was it against the law for first cousins to marry?

Hi Lynn,

No first cousins could then and now marry.

Hi Kay
thank you for your reply, thats very interesting for some reason i thought first cousins couldnt marry!
so onwards and upwards i go or should i say backwards lol.
