Brilliant find CRG - it is definitely Jex, as the 1st letter is identical to the J in Jane found further up.
Well done indeed.
Horsehair weaver is her occupation, not her husband's though.
Jan

Not sure what you mean! The marriage above is for an Albert E. Jex.

Thanks Ivy that is def a very good poss.The only thing is it says she was single but people did lie.
I will def keep it as a very good poss.

Thank you very much,where did you find it.

unfortunately some of the asylums, as indeed the prisons or other institutions, listed the inmates by initial only, which makes life difficult for research :-(

Thanks Jan,
Ellen Emma Goffin dob 1886 Norfolk.
Married to Albert Edward Jex dob 1887 Norfolk.
Marriage 1905 Norwich.
The last i have of Ellen is 1901c
I have Albert with his parents in 1911c stated as married but cannot find Ellen .
I did find a child Ellen Emma Jex 1907 born and died ,poss could have been thier child .The 1911 with Albert says he had 3 live child births 3 deaths of children.
Any help would be appreciated.

Do you want to put details and let others have a go?
Jan

Now thats anothing thing i can't find.She seems to have dissapeared .
I have searched all the sites in case one had it and the other did'nt.
Any ideas.
I't only a theory that she's in an asylum as like i say i can't find her.

The institution will appear on the normal census records - inmates were often recorded only by initials and surname

When did the woman die?

Can anyone tell me if there are records for asylums in and around Norfolk for about 1911.

I'm looking for a relative who i think could be in an asylum due to loosing 3 children.Have found her husband but she's not there and can't find her on any 1911c
