Title: Marriage of Charles William Seymour to Hannah ? ,Poplar?
Post by: gracol on Thursday 01 January 26 21:03 GMT (UK)
In the 1891 census he is living in Poplar and is single.
1901 census in Poplar with wife Hannah.Hannah born Poplar.
1911 census both still in Poplar and married for 19 years.Hannah born Poplar.
Therefore married around 1892.
Cannot find on Ancestry or Family Search.A tree shows  a Hannah Sullivan but this seems incorrect.
Again any help appreciated.

You don’t mention if they had any children?  If so - have you checked for their births on freebmd then used GRO online to establish mothers maiden name?

I agree, children’s births are registered under mother’s name of ANDREWS

On the 1939 register Hannah’s DOB is 1st May 1871

Possible BIRTH
ANDREWS, HANNAH       Mther- SULLIVAN 
GRO Reference: 1871  J Quarter in POPLAR UNION  Volume 01C  Page 633

According to FreeBMD there was a marriage in Poplar in Sep qtr 1936 for a Charles W SEYMOUR and a Hannah ANDREWS.

Wouldn't be the first time a couple has left it for a few years.

There is a death for a Hannah SEYMOUR Dec qtr 1942 in Poplar, aged 71, which would fit with the 1871 birth that Neale found.

Very many thanks for the replies.
The marriage in 1936 and Hannah Andrews birth in 1871 in Poplar fit very well.
