Thanks Louisa, yes I knew she was ELLEN on the Death cert, but on her birth it has HELEN.
Well, I shall keep trying.

Thanks again.

Ahh yes we all seem to suffer in the same way - didn't ask questions.  I think I have managed quite well I have a pretty big tree, except for this line.

Elizabeth's middle names were Helen Bethia and she was known as Bess.  I have of course tried all combinations when searching.  How do you think this can help?

I do have the 1891 census with her and she isn't with her father in the 1901. I know the witnesses on m.cert and I wish I had asked before they died.

Yes very strange, I guess people were able to call themselves what they liked in those days. When she married in 1919 she didn't need to supply any evidence of previous marriage or death to show she was a widow then.

I shall keep chipping away and perhaps one day it will all come clear.

Thanks for your input.

Hi Louisa Maud,

I haven't found my grandparents in 1901.

No have never found a marriage for Arthur Paget and Elizabeth House.

My fathers name was Leonard William Paget b. 1905 Wandsworth. As I could not find a birth for Leonard William Paget -- I searched for his mothers name HOUSE and found a birth but no father on certificate.  So I thought they must have married after he was born.

Thanks Louisa Maud,  Its a long story, I have been looking for my grandfather for 15 odd years now, in fact TENNANT is the head of house in the 1911 census, where my grandmother was a boarder, and I was hoping to find some info on my grandfather.  Arthur Paget  b.? m.? d. ?

My fathers birth cert. b. 1905 does not give a father only his mother Elizabeth HOUSE, (which is her maiden name) but in the 1911 she calls herself Elizabeth Paget  married for 10 years, no children. Must mention here that my father was living with his cousins in the 1911 census in Surrey, and his name is Paget!! We did know before searching that Elizabeth was married to Commins in 1919.
I have the marriage cert. which states that she is a widow and her name is Elizabeth Paget.

I could go on further as we have had snippets told to us by Aunts.    So have been searching for an Arthur Paget and a marriage cert. but no luck.  My father was sent to Cranleigh School in Surrey in 1919 and after enquiries they told us that the address was 22 Albert Street Regents Park, and his fathers name was Arthur Paget.

I guess you wish you hadn't asked, by the way her place of birth is correct on the census but age is wrong.

So trying to find something on Electoral Rolls!!
