Can anyone more experienced help please? I have 2 marriages I cannot find.
First is Thomas Myatt and Mary Ann Clark. Both were born about 1835, in Warwickshire. There 1st child was born 1855, so marriage must have been 1850-55 I suppose.

The second is John Hanks and Florence Kibbler. They were born around 1865. John was born in Oxfordshire, Florence either Bristol or Gloucestershire.
Any help much appreciated! Thanks.

Where did you get the info about Florence's surname? There isn't a match on 1871 census............or 1881, which is free to all.

Reg

Hi GB! Yes, this is them! Thanks. I just wanted to find the marriage record to confirm Florence's maiden name - I assume Kibbler isn't a very common name so thought it would be easy. Wrong!
Jan

Reggie - it was from other Genes people. I do trust them, but I would like to be sure and also trace Florence's line.
Jan

Have you looked for Florence before her marriage?

Sorry.......but never trust anyone's info if you haven't verfied it yourself...........

There is this birth

Name: Florence Kibbler
Year of Registration: 1868
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Clifton
County: Gloucestershire
Volume: 6a
Page: 153

Reggie - I do take your point.. This has come from 2 people, but I do still need to be sure.
GB, thanks for finding this birth.. The marriage is still a mystery tho.
Hanks is not a common name. I am completley sure about John Hanks and Florence. Maybe her surname is wrong.

Reggie - thanks. This is definitely them. I didn't have Bristol as being in Gloucestershire - is it?? Maybe it was back then. It looks like Glitter has found Florence's birth. Thanks to you both.
It's possible they never married I suppose, and it doesn't really matter if I know her name. Would have been nice to find tho!
Jan

Reggie - we crossed posts I think! Many thanks for this info.

Births Mar 1888 (>99%)

HANKS Dan Edmund
Aston 6d 417

Glitter - I do know about Dan, didn't know he was Dan Edmund tho. Thanks.
Jan

Checking the GRO indexes for 1885/86/87 (based on age of eldest child on 1891 census), there were six instances of a marriage for a John HANKS.

Cross-checking these with "Florence KIBBLER" re. dates, RDs etc., here is their marriage:

1887 Q2 - John HANKS / Florence KIBBLER - Warwick - 6d 790

(The marriage is not on FreeBMD as that particular quarter has only been 50% transcribed.)

Penny

Penny, thank you so much! I would never have found this. It must be correct - John Hanks is not a common name, and with the info I have it does check out. Brilliant! And thanks too to everyone for their input.. Where would we be without such support from the GR community?
Jan

I know it's a cheek, but is there any chance you could look at the other bit of my original post please? This is to find marriage of
Thomas Myatt and Mary Ann Clark. (I'm sorry to say that I went mad and originally put Hanks instead of Myatt - oops!). They were born around 1835 and their 1st child was born in 1855, so quite a narrow window.
Thanks!
Jan

Would this be the family in 1861?

Thanks Ivy. This is definitely them - Thomas worked on the railways, so I suppose that's why they moved around so much! I've got a birth certificate for one of his children, so I know Mary Ann's maiden name was Clark. Just can't find their marriage.
