Hiya. No definite spouse shown for the Frederick John Shepheard entry - two males on the page and only 1 female - not an Annie. Nothing comes up if you ask for marriage/Frederick Shepheard/Annie. However, if you ask for Marriage/Frederick Shepherd/Annie one comes up as follows - Sep 1901 Edmonton Vol3a p834 Frederick James Shepherd and Annie Buchanan Beattie. Lots of other entries for Fredericks (no J middle initial) marrying Annies. Hope this hasn't added to your woes!! Maz. XX

By the way Demelza, where does your first name originate, it is lovely and unusual! Maz. XX

Hiya maz, I think the one dawn post on here was the right one, From the 1901 census i have Frederick, Annie and 2 children, Charlotte and Frederick. The kids births were just after the marriage date and all confined to round about the same area...think i can safely assume that its the same couple! Ta for your trouble :)

My Name?...not so bad now but during my school years it could be a hinderance as you can imagine!... theres a small village in Cornwall with the name, but the real reason is because my mum was an avid fan of 'POLDALK'..a tv series set in 17/18th century cornwall about smugglers that was on in the 70s!!! Never felt the need to watch it for some reason!! lol :)
