Can't find Edward on 1901, but he might be away at sea. This looks to be the family on the 1891 on the 1901 - might not be the right family but it's a possible. Name Age in 1901 Birthplace Relationship Civil Parish County/Island View Image Bertie Waller 4 Southwold, Suffolk, England Son Southwold Suffolk Bessie Waller 39 Yarmouth, Norfolk, England Wife Southwold Suffolk Catherine Waller 78 Burnham, Norfolk, England Mother Southwold Suffolk Charles Waller 44 Wells, Norfolk, England Head Southwold Suffolk Edith Waller 11 Lowestoft, Suffolk, England Daughter Southwold Suffolk Louisa Waller 15 Farnham, Hampshire, England Daughter Southwold Suffolk

I used the marriage registration district (have searched for marriages this way in that district myself), and just went through tme one by one and found them!! Saved you £7! I wish it had been there when I was looking for marriages for my ancestors.... oh well, I've found some great great aunts and uncles getting married on there, and my mum's own baptism! Chloe

Found it!!! http://cityark.medway.**gov.uk/query/results/? Mode=ShowImg&Img=/cityark/Scans/Ecclesiastical_Rochester_ Archdeaconry_Area_Parishes/P153_GILLINGHAM_ST_MARY_MAGDALENE_1558_ 1986/01_Incumbent_Church_Registers_1558_ 1976/P153_01_40.html/00000222.jpg Remove the **. Also cut and paste it into a word document and the make it go all on one line - if that makes any sense.

Yvonne, I've had a look on the census but can't seem to find him. I will look again to be sure. The only thing I can think is that he wasn't living anywhere near where I thought he was. Thank you:) Saff

Chloe, I don't. I do know that they settled around Eythorn in Kent. Saff:)

Saffron - do you know which church they might have married in?

Saffron

Saffron Report 4 Apr 2005 19:40

Tracy, I found that one too! Can't quite get my head around that one! I'm thinking maybe it should read brother, not son. Either that or they started young in bedfordshire! Saff:)

Walter Waller 26 Goldington, Bedfordshire, England Head Bedford St Peter Bedfordshire Alice Waller 27 Goldington, Bedfordshire, England Wife Bedford St Peter Bedfordshire Edward C Waller 20 Goldington, Bedfordshire, England Son Bedford St Peter Bedfordshire *checks image* Ages are right lol - that doesn't make sense. I suggest you buy the marriage cert to find out his father and how old he was so we can help more... Marriage Sep 1914 Waller Edward C - Petherick - Medway 2a 1641

Sam, I'm not sure of his fathers name but I've been told it may be Charles. Saff:)

Saffron

Saffron Report 4 Apr 2005 19:36

Tracey, I believe he would have been between 28 and 30 years old. But this is guesswork. Thank you for your search. I actually like the sound of the last listed one. Is that from the 1901 census? I may have missed it. I think it's a good possibility he lived outside of kent. Thanks again Saff:)

Suzzanne Report 4 Apr 2005 19:31

Hi, Is it possible that he was born and registered under his mothers maiden name? His parents may not have been married when he was born or perhaps he later kept the surname of a later stepfather. Good luck anyway, Suzzanne

Sam

Sam Report 4 Apr 2005 19:31

If you let us know how old he was when he married and his fathers name, there will be more chance of someone finding him. If you don't know either of these, you should get a copy of the marriage certificate as it will help trace him and his wife back. Oops, sorry I am being a thicko, have just noticed that neither of the two records I have posted above are births!! One is a marriage and th other a death! Sam
