hi is there any way i can see all info for marrages from a site to do with vol 1d page 558 thank you steve

on free BMD just click on that index number. Jenny

is that a www. site jenny ? steve

yes this is the web address http://freebmd.rootsweb(.)com/ remove the brackets

ok thank you for your help jenny most welcomed steve

jenny i am on that site but from the census of 1901 it says albert western head wife matilda but on that site there is no matilda?? what do you think is wrong please help me steve

what area are you looking for and when abouts were they married?

It could be that the marriage you are looking for has not been added to the website as yet. I have just checked and couldnt find one, otr they could be mistranscribed. You could try on Ancestry where you can look for them quarter by quarter if you know a year then it will be easier if you dont it could take ages to find them Good luck Julie

well i have found albert married 1891 4quart vol 1d page 558 they were married in st olaves but the 2 other ladys names are not matilda ?? steve

Hi Steve Presume the below is what you are seeing: Surname First name(s) District Vol Page -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marriages Dec 1891 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bird Amelia Emma St. Olave 1d 558 Crook Emma St. Olave 1d 558 James George Frederick St. Olave 1d 558 Western Albert John St. Olave 1d 558 Where did you get the reference from initially? Do you have any children for them - if you order one of their birth certs it will give you Matilda's maiden name then you can have another look. the other alternative is that there is another Albert Western - try looking on the 1901 for him with one of these other women, that would then rule this reference out. Regards Looby PS - have just had a look, no trace of Albert or Amelia on the 1901 but Emma is living as Emma James, happily married to George Frederick in Hackney.

where did you get that reference number from steve?

thank you looby but the 1901 census is the right 1 the kids all match the only thing that is strange is this matilda lol steve

ancestry jenny you dont think that matilda could be a mistake and is should say on the census amelia

Think you're going to have to order one of the kids certs to find her maiden name then try again. What's the census ref, do you want us to have a look at it to make sure you're reading it right. regards Looby

2 possibles? Marriages Jun 1886 BARNETT Matilda Stoke T. 6b 241 Jones Harvey Stoke T 6b 241 Weston Albert Stoke T 6b 241 or Marriages Dec 1897 Ackred Emma Shoreditch 1c 154 GOLLEDGE John Alfred Shoreditch 1c 154 JONES Matilda Shoreditch 1c 154 Weston Albert Richard Shoreditch 1c 154

maybe she was just known as matilda?, I have instances like that in my tree.

Think you might have cracked it Julie - well done!! Trudy
