Title: Mawby family Long Lawford
Post by: diamondnes on Saturday 20 October 12 06:47 BST (UK)

Looking for anyone who might know the wife of my great grandfather Alfred Mawby of Long Lawford born in 1852.  On the 1891 Census it states his wife as Maria who was born in Wolston(e).  When I pull up the marriage of Alfred, the only one that comes up is to a Charlottey Whittaker in 1879.  I can't seem to find out who his wife was as I can't find any Maria or Charlottey Whittaker in any census who was born in Wolston(e).

Thanks for that info.  I am using findmypast and have tried using freeBMD, but I am having a hard time finding anything.  I am new at this and might not be putting in the correct info, I'll keep trying.
