Title: HOWARD - Willesden 1901 Census
Post by: lynda on Monday 29 August 05 09:57 BST (UK)

I have a marriage certificate for William HOWARD who married Priscilla DEER at Willesden on Christmas Day 1891. He was aged 28 and was the son of George HOWARD.
I cannot locate William in any census 1871-1901. I believe Priscilla died in 1895, so I would like to locate William in the 1901 to see if he and Priscilla had any children.
Any hints on how to find William?

Can you give anymore info?
What was William & his Father George's occupation.
Do the witness on the marriage cert indicate maybe any
of William's relatives?

hi,
William and George HOWARD were both lath-renders according to the marriage certificate. It does not say that George was deceased so I am assuming he was alive at that time. The witnesses to the marriage were George and Elizabeth DEER, the brides brother and his wife so no clues there.

hi Sue,
thankyou for doing that for me. I will look into this William further though if Minnie is his only child then she couldn't be Priscilla's child. TWay too young.
Thanks again!
