hi garstonite many thanks for your reply.  My tree so far has not gone back past my family members (great grandmother and her parents and brother) when they arrived here in NZ.  However I will try your suggestions and check that website out........thanks for that and will be interesting to see what comes up

Hey Wozzle many thanks for that research.  I did also find George at Glebe Farm but not being from UK was not sure if that fell into the rough areaswhere he could be found for his later marriage.  I have their birth laces  and other info but just could not find them in 1901.  However Ann bein a nurse in Doncaster seems to ft her profile (my grandmother her second daughter was also a nurse in WW1).  Will look all that up too..............I presume Doncaster is near  bardney is it?

I am looking for Ann Storrs formerly Tether nee Kirman born about 1863 in Bardney and also George William Storrs/Stores around 1891.  In 1888 Ann married Thomas Tether and a month later had a daughter.  In 1889 Thomas Tether died and their daughter went to live with her maternal grandmother which shows up in the 1891 census.  However there appears to be no trace of Ann under either Tether, Kirman or Storrs at this point.  In late 1891 she married George William Storrs/Stores who on their marriage cert says that he was living in Potterhanworth and  Ann was living in Bardney.  It would seem that she has disappeared from 1889 to her marriage to George William Storrs when she resurfaced to marry him.  He is also not easy to find either and I believe if I could find him then she would show up as I imagine that they would have known one another and been courting at the time of the census given that they married later that same year.  I have  also discovered in later census's that Anns first daughter (Jessie) did not return to live with her and George William and on the death of her maternal grandmother she went to live with her paternal grandparents despite their age and also despite her mother having another child only five years younger than Jessie.  Can anyone give me ideas on how else to find where Ann and George were in April 1891 and also why Jessie never returned to her mother after her mothers remarriage.  I did think that perhaps GW would not accept Jessie but am reliably informed that he did and in his later years was grandfather to Jessies children and in fact was very fond of children.

I am sorry I appear to have mislead you in that in my message yesterday I had actually copied the first message as it had been some time since it was posted and thought that it might jog some memories.  Sorry am new to this web site and so messed that.  I am in fact researching Storrs which was a name that also appeared in the original posting.  However I am also researching Spicer and Beeson.  My great grandparents lived in Long Bennington and are buried there.  Many of my relatives are also buried there and some descendents still live there.  The name there that I am researching is Spicer.  Storrs came from Stow and parts therby.  Beeson came from South Witham.

I saw the above post and thought that I would reply as I have   an interest in the name Storrs of Lincolnshire.  My great Grandfather George Storrs was born in Stow and married a lady called Ann Tether formerly Kirman.  I do not have a lot of info on the Storrs family so would be interested to see if there is any relationship there.
