Marriage Cert Question

[carol8353]

Well I now have some of them in 1871  

Living in Greasley Notts.

George Turner head married ,looks like his age is 72   Shoemaker b Notts
Mary Ann Turner wife married 49 b Notts (can't read place name)
Thomas Moss son to wife 17 coal miner b UNderwood,Selston
Johnathon Moss son to wife 15  ditto job ditto place of birth
Elizabeth Eagle servant age 9 YES NINE!!! b Nottingham.

RG10/3478  Folio  5  Page  3

But still haven't found James or Martha,if that marriage is correct?

Here's the family that I think are correct in 1861,dad Thomas has died.
Goodness knows why they are now Moss..........was that her maiden name perhaps?

In Selston Notts.

Mary Ann Moss widowed head 39- all the family born Selston.
Mark Moss son 17 coal miner
James Moss son 14 coal miner
Thomas Moss son 7 scholar
Johnathon Moss son 5 scholar.

Looking good as Newf says- older son called Mark and 7 year old called Thomas(prob after dad)

ok been gone a little while  is this james the james and martha james?

Yep 

Born Housley in 1847 but changed to Moss by 1861....but goodness knows where he and Martha are in 1871.

Still looking

Thomas and Mary Houseley both age 20 are in Selston in 1841 with 11 mth old baby Ruth.

They probably married just before that.

Lets see...........

Edit- can't find them on Free BMD or the IGI.......hmm.
Looks like Ruth's birth cert or James's would be the way to go to get mum's maiden name.

Interestingly, Mary Ann has apparently reverted to MOSS in 1881:

Jonathan Moss head 25 Coal miner   born Underwood, Notts
Ada Moss wife                                    born Hucknall Torkard, Notts
Mary A Moss daughter 18m                born Hucknall Torkard, Notts
Thomas Moss son 14 days                  born underwood, Notts
Mary A Moss mother 60                      Born Underwood, Notts

hi,

Can I link in on this too, I am searching Housley Moss in Underwood area and am interested the the change of surname from housley to Housley moss.  It does not seem to be Mary Ann's maiden name.  I am talking to someone from the Notts FHS and it looks likely that her surname is Anthony.
I am going to X ref my finding against this thread.

Thanks

I know it's been a few years not but how did this all turn out? I only ask because i am very new to this and if i am correct James and Martha H Moss had a daughter called Clara in 1885. Now she is my mother's grandma. That much i have worked out (i'm pretty sure lol). But i can't go any further back because it's so confusing.
