1891 has Charles junior living with father Charles age 49 bn Wokingham, mother Martha 44 bn Dover but no Annie :-\
1881 has Ann age 6 bn Greenwich plus an older sister Carry age 12 and 2 younger brothers
This could be Charles and Martha's marriage

Hi all if Mary Emily Castle is the wife of Charles Moorcock, could she be the one with a William Castle aged 57 b Ash nr Sandwich Kent with wife Mary A 63 b Buckland Kent with a Mary E Castle aged 12 b Hastings Sussex Census RG09/550/93/14
In 1851 ref HO107/1632/767/26 Mary E appears as a Mary Taylor aged 2 b Hastings with again William and Mary Castle?
Only a possible as Martha? gives Dover as her pob.
EDIT maybe not she looks to be a Mary Elizabeth b Hastings

On both the 1864 marriage to Margaretta and on the 1873 marriage to Mary Emily, Charles Moorcock is said to be a son of James Moorcock, land surveyor.
So who is the "Emma" (27 b Islington) he shows up with in 1871? (RG10/304/11/15)
-
This looks like Margaretta in 1861 Shoreditch
RG9/238 f 71 p 8
William Head 51
Matilda Head 27
Matilda Head 3
Margaretta Sampson 20 bn Devonport.
Is this Charles in 1851
James Moorcock 53 Ag Lab bn Wokingham, Berks
Mary Moorcock 51 bn Heckfield, Hants
Esther Moorcock 14
James Moorcock 11
Charles Moorcock 9
Children all bn Wokingham
Ag Lab to land surveyor ;D :-\ :-\ He probably does survey the land ;D
