Title: Murray - Howard Marriage circa 1850?
Post by: Ottawa_John on Thursday 08 December 11 03:57 GMT (UK)

I am looking for a marriage between a Thomas Murray and Margaret Howard. I have the birth certificate of a child Catherine born August 1853 (Saint Georges East, Tower Hamlets-Upper King Street), has anybody any idea of where the marriage may had taken place, the do not turn up in BDMs?

Hi

If Murray/Howard are Scottish/Irish (?) then the marriage could be there.
If Irish then the documents may be gone forever when the Records Office burned down.

Do you have the family in a census where it gives a clue to where they were born?

Regards
Ray

Hi Jennifer

I saw them too, which is what prompted the "born in Ireland" post.

Maybe her name was Margaret Catherine (or vice versa) ?

Cheers
