Europe / Re: Marriages & Baptisms in Paris, France

After alot of research I believe I have found the reason Louis Alfred Cuquemelle moved to England. I found that his Father in Law Joseph Warner. Father of his wife Reine Warnier also resided in Birmingham.

I found that the father in Law Joseph was born in 1813. It seems he got married in 1833 to a presumably French lady named Jeanne Guerin in Paris. Then for whatever reason (this I havent found out) he got married again to a lady named Elisabeth Thomas in 1851 in Paris. This lady's name being an English name can only make me assume he moved to England to be with her. With his daughter, her husband and their children later following.

Louis was a brass maker. His wife Reine and her father Joseph were both Lamp makers. Louis died at the age of 40 in the St James area of Westminster, which was an extremely affluent area.

Reine Victorine Cuquemelle was my great grandmother; Reine Cuquemelle was my great great grandmother.   She was married (on 16.10.1858) to Louis Alfred Cuquemelle, born 05.09.28, died 11.01.1869 in Clerkenwell.
I'd be very interested to here from 'Janine' or 'Reine' (to whom I must be related) but as this is my first post it would have to be via the forum.
