Title: Martha Howes
Post by: meerkat49 on Monday 25 March 13 13:56 GMT (UK)

I am hoping for some help.  My great grandmother - Martha Howes - was born c1852 in Gloucestershire, she married Joseph Eyles and had 2 children, after he died she lived with George Baskerville and had 3 children, Frederick was my grandfather.  I do not know whether her parents were Joseph and Elizabeth Howes or Thomas and Martha Howes.  Ancestry shows conflicting information.  She had a sister - Emily c1856 - who was on the 1881 census (surname down as Hawes). Thanks in advance for any information.  Jayne. ???

Purchasing the Marriage Cert of Martha and Joseph will answer your question as to her Fathers name/occp.
