You have to either go to the record office or send for the person's birth certificate. |

Nothing on Free BMD for the marriage of Edith Allen or the death of the first wife. Might need to be using 1837 or similar |

I agree with Nikki, you'll have to look on 1837, find the marriage and send for the cert |

In 1891, she's this... Beecham, Elizabeth J abt 1872 Brampton, Huntingdonshire, England Daughter Brampton Huntingdonshire Thomas in 1881 Tom Reedman abt 1872 Brampton, Huntingdon, England Son High St, Brampton, Huntingdonshire, England I checked familyrelatives and couldn't see her death before 1920. Unless J is Jane? Reedman Jane 39 Huntingdon.3b 263 Death 4 1911 Ahah! Marriage Dec 1915 Reedman Tom Allen Edith Huntingdon 3b 907 What was the question? lol |

so it the death of Elizabeth not Edith we are looking for? View Record Reedman, Elizabeth 1901 September Deaths Stamford Huntingdonshire Lincolnshire Northamptonshire Rutland **aged 29 (about 20 miles from huntingdon) View Record REEDMAN, Elizabeth 1904 June Deaths Peterborough Cambridgeshire Huntingdonshire Lincolnshire Northamptonshire **aged 2 , so not this one |
