Im not sure i understand your reply. I think the 8 and 18 part you are Correct.

However. If this george Rushton was living in stoke on trent in 1911 with Rose Annie (nee Chell) and there children. How was it he Had children with Gertrude as you stated in a previous post? are you saying George Rushton (footballer) did not marry Chell and may have been married to someone else previous? that would make the information on the internet "George married Rosanna CHELL in 1900 but was living with Gertrude Bell in Hull in 1909 when they had their first child. I would like to know what happened to Rosanna CHELL George and Gertrude did not marry until 1925. They had 6 children all Hull  born" incorrect well some of it anyway!

Hi again been looking into the 1911 census.
George Rushton age 30 Head Occupation Chauffeur
Rose Annie Rushton age 30 wife Occupation Home Maker
Gladys Maud Rushton age 18 Daughter School
Jacob Rushton Brother age 16 Mould Maker (potters)
Address 4 Gordon St, Stoke upon Trent

How was George a Chauffeur if he was playing Football for Swindon Town From March 1910 - July 1912???

I think there is 2 George Rushtons and who ever wrote the Football thing is mistaken

Thank Steve would be greatful if you could email me a copy?? :D will give you some pennies towards. but i think maybe they are getting mixed up with the two especially since the Marriage certs are different and there is a thomas rushton a to much of a coincidence to be a mistake?!?

Iv not been doing this very long and not 100% but there where 2 George Rushton's born in staffordshire around the same time. one son of thomas and one son of george His Head stone says he died in 1964 aged 82 which would mean he was born 1881/2 not 1880 could it not be that they where seperate marrages? im looking for the parents of George but even if i got the certificate i cannot be sure i have the right George rushton in the 1st place. and i dont think it gives many details on death cert!

Thanks for your message.

You are correct in saying George Rushton's first child with Gertrude is Emily Grace.

However you have overlooked the fact that George was married before to Rose Anna Chell. This is shown in  the 1901 census and I have a copy of their marriage certificate, which took place on 24 Dec 1900 at Normacote, Staffs which I believe is a Catholic Church

George and Gertrude did not marry until 1925 4 years after their 6th child was born. Their late marriage could be due to Rose Anna being a Catholic and George had to wait until she died before he could marry Gertrude. Their marriage certificate describes George as a widower and Gertrude as a widow. But George's first marriage gives his father's name as George and his second as Thomas. Like you say.

The name Thomas could be wrong. My own father's first marriage certificate gave his father's name wrongly as Thomas when it was George.

George Rushton's grand daughter, Gillian married my nephew Robert Museth
