Hi All Can anyone assist please I am searching for a marriage of Robert Stewart DoB 1841 Marsham Norfolk the !881 census shows him in Sutton London his wife Elizabeth ?? DoB 1846? Corpasty Norfolk I am not sure where they got married Thank you Georgie Boy
That took a bit of searching! I found Elizabeth's maiden name (CRASKE) by searching for the birth registration of their daughter Charlotte, who was 3 months old in the 1881 census. Then searched for a marriage between Elizabeth CRASKE and a Robert. Found one in the September quarter of 1871, Aylsham district, volume 4b, page 143 to Robert STEWARD. Aylsham covers Corpusty.
Hello Daft Bat Thank you so much we have looked for a long time and been going around in circles thanks again
Never rely on one way of spelling things. Folk wrote down what they heard and spelling was not really standardised until as late as the beginning of the 20th century. A 'T' and a 'D' can almost sound the same.
I can see by the 1861 census that Elizabeth Craske was in a union workhouse along with her brother John aged 9 but no parents were there tried to find them in 1851 census but cannot find them would anyone have access to 1851 census please regards
Thank you so much the wife is so pleased she has searched for a long time for these people it has given us the information to search more now thank you
