Thanks for your thoughts.

I've been grasping at straws on this one for years.

I have a marriage cert for George from 1862 to Victoria Matilda Russell in Rotherhithe.  He was a widower - very helpful - and his father William Winter  was a Park keeper.

I have basically resigned myself to not getting back to George's birth.  There are several on the IGI that could be him but I'd be guessing.

I THINK I found my George on the 1851.  Single, place of birth Greenwich.  I just checked my records... it's not good.  I have a new laptop and the 1851 image isn't on here.  It'll be on my old pc, in the loft!!  I hadn't printed it out either.

Family insist George was Irish.  I have never found anything to prove or disprove this though.  Maybe I never will.

Sorry I'm not too helpful!

Thank you for your reply CaroleW

I'm fully aware of all of the above, thank you.

The entry is not accessible on Ancestry without subscription, which is why I asked.  I'd like to know the year, qtr and if possible the surname of the spouse.

Hi,

Looking for details of a marraige entry on Ancestry as follows;

There are two entries.  I've tracked the other Hampshire one, but would like details of this one please.

Many thanks,

Hi,
Apologies for not replying sooner.  I'm stuck with this family as I'm not sure of their origins.  I have George in Greenwich/Rotherhithe from 1851.  His father was William as per his marriage certificate, but I cannot find George on the 1841 apart from this possible family.

Thanks Su!

I searched it a few years ago with no joy...just tried again & BINGO!!  One of mine was the victim of a pickpocket in 1847.

I looked a few pages back from the entry to see the general writing of the enumerator, and there is an entry which is clearly General Labourer.

What do you think, comparing it with the one which has been so comprehensively scored out?

Hope this comes out clearly enough!



I think you just won this weeks gold star!!!!

You clever thing :)

Many thanks, it certainly looks the same to me.
