Title: John Hewitt
Post by: laurarobby on Monday 07 September 09 10:57 BST (UK)
Please can someone help me. here's what i have
My Great Grandfather was John Lance Hewitt Married Eva Pickett Jun 1906
I believe His parents where John and Ada Hewitt. I Have found them with John Lance in the 1891 census. i am struggling to find John & Ada's Marrage John was Born in Birmingham and Ada Sheffield and John Lance also Birmingham but by Age 4 was living in hull. I've looked everywhere i can but no good. I Think i found John Snr's Parents Samual and Sarah Hewitt but not 100%

Thanks again x

Hi Laurarobby,

I'm afraid this looks like a case where you need John Lance's birth cert to find out Ada's maiden name before you can make conjectures about marriages.

I can see a possible Ada in 1881, already shown as married:

RG11/3015 116 20

If it's her then the Sep 1877 marriage, Aston 6d 508 between John Hewitt and possibly Ada Cathrall would fit nicely, but you won't know without little John's birth cert.
