Title: Ann{e} Kelly puzzled ?
Post by: pollyarchmucker on Friday 18 September 09 13:54 BST (UK)

Hi
I am trying to find Ann[e] Kelly birth and mothers name.
On the 1861 census her birth place is noted as Lincolnshire Nocton but in 1851 and 1871 we have Lancastshire Wigan. I know her father is James a soldier noted on her second marraige to Andrew Reid /Ann Beattie in 1854 in Durham

It looks like Ann was born in approx1827  Can anyone through any more light on this or any suggestions ?
Regards
Mick

1861 looks like Wigan to me.  It's just that the county is wrong.

RG9/3789/19/32

The census enumerator seem to put a "riser" on g's ... see Engine Wright and Youghal.

Thanks for your input Geoff. It's not easy to read wether it's Wigan or not but i havn't much experince with this.
I wish i could find Ann's birth but nothing shows up for Wigan.

With her father {James being a soldier is there any military record keeping  that might help me , that might establish who he married.
