1871 Lookup please COMPLETED Thanks

[tazzie]

  Hi guys....I am having one of those I may have gone wrong here moments,

 I am looking for .....

  Joseph Robinson b@1836Woburn  (bricklayer in1881)
  Wife,,,,,,(have as Mary A in 1881 but aged 28)!
  Mary A dau b @1864 Sheep Lane Bedfordshire
  Henry son b @ 1866 Sheep Lane
  Lumiel son b @1869 Sheep Lane....

  All living in Chapel Path in 1881

 If the wife age is right for 1881 this is a second marriage and I need to find the real mother to Mary Ann age 17. I already have one MAJOR headache to explain this family to my mum as it look now that another branch have assumed their surname.

                     Thanks

   Hi Guys......

  It must be wrong on 1881 somewhere.

 I do have a marriage in 1856 Woburn for a Joseph Robinson and Ann Giltrow on same page.  I have been able to trace backwards from these a couple of generations. I was rechecking the family before progressing forwards with siblings and looked at 1881 for the first time tonight. It states Mary A age 28 so it threw me as I cannot see a marriage to tie it in.  Mary Ann the daughter is my interest and it's ther that I have an issue with names.

                         Thanks

Tazzie,  The IGI confirms that marriage at Potsgrove on 9 Nov 1856,  Joseph was age 25 & Anne age 20

[bearkat]

1881 census says wife, Mary Ann is 18
daughter, Mary Ann is 17

So Mary Ann must be second wife.

There's a death of an Ann ROBINSON born about 1836  Sept quarter 1872 Woburn district.


Can't see a remarriage though.
