Lynne,
It looks like Margarets father Thomas died 1864 ??? he was a coal miner....she was only little when he died.........her brother was Joseph and he was also a coal miner........maybe she didn't really know the proper details and guessed !!!!

Regards Vera.

Lynne,
It is not surprising that your head is spinning.....these ancestors have a habit of doing it to us !!!!! :-))

Regards Vera

hi nicky i can,t put my hand on it at the minute but i know her father was listed as joseph lewins black smith iv,e got to go for now but will check back later thanks for all your help it is really appreciated

So whats the fathers name of Margaret Lewins on the marriage cert.

Who were the witnesses? and what was Margarets age? it may help to trace this elusive Mary/Margaret prior to her marriage to Johnathan..


Nicky.

HI NICKY I THINK I WILL I KNOW ON HIS BAPTISM RECORD HIS PARENTS WERE LISTED AS JONATHAN AND MARY AS IS ALL THE CHILDREN MY GRANDFATHERS BIRTH CERT ARTHUR REAPER HIS MOTHER IS LISTED AS MARY REAPER FORMERLY RUSSELL

Is this Margaret Lewins {Lawson}?? from the 1885 marriage names with Jonathan Reaper???

EDIT..Only just read your post that you have Jonathans marriage cert. to Margaret Lewins!!!....I thought you were trying to sort out wether it was the correct marriage or not, as so did others I suspect...

I think you need to get oldest sons birth cert to confirm mothers maiden name...

Have had a look on familysearch too. Can see son Richard's baptism but no marriage. And too many Mary Russell's to pin her birth down I think.
