Susan -- should the date for Henrietta there be 1867? (rather than 1887)


So ... we've cracked Henrietta then??

Sorry, yes 31st March, 1867. 29 Crown Lane.

My Henrietta - Peter marriage certificate showss father is George, I am confused again. I need to search for Birth cert with father George I guess.

Oh, oh, sorry, I see. We've cracked her back to the Baker marriage, but not her birth.

What is her stated age on the marriage certificate? Witnesses?

1881, searchable by occupation, has one George Bennett lodging house keeper, in Hove, Sussex. I was a little excited when I saw a 13-yr-old Harriot Quinn in the household ... but she was a servant. Drat.

ROSS - CASEY - MELLOR

I have information that Mary Ann Casey who married Hiram Ross (1907), was the daughter of Henry Casey (b.Ireland) and Elizabeth Mellor. Henry and Elizabeth married on 25 July 1896 at St Ann's Catholic Church, Manchester. On the marriage certificate, Elizabeth's father is named as Ralph Mellor, deceased Stonemason.

I am having trouble searching Elizabeth in the Census results. I know Henry was from ireland. I now wonder if Elizabeth was also born in Ireland.

Is anyone able to provide me with any clues or infomation? I don't know Elizabeth's mothers name.

Thankyou,
Susan
