back again - just found this birth Florence Annie Cole Year of Registration: 1896 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec District: Plymouth County: Devon Volume: 5b Page: 268 wonder if she married a Haycock (witness on marriage certificate) - might be worth seeing if we can find her.

That's okay Elaine - thanks for looking. This family have been doing this to me for ages! The bride's father behaves in a similar way - William Edward Eke at birth but William Frederick on censuses ..... Thanks again Mark

Yes, me too - Florence is a great find, but (unsurprisingly!) I can't identify her on 1901. Thanks again Mark

Elaine, Just found: Florence A. Cole married Haycock in Bedwellty in September quarter 1920 - just a few months before Albert's marriage! Mark

Just a little bit more - Albert Edward had two brothers who used to visit the family in Bedwellty from Plymouth - Jack and Ernie Cole (named for his father?). I haven't been able to find either of them in 1901. Mark

Hi Wendy, That all makes a lot of sense - I'll have to interrogate the father in law some more. Thanks for that. Mark
