OK, now THIS is weird. Is Milbrow the name of a WOMAN?

This is what I found:

Marriages Mar 1887   
Hollings    John         Weobly    6a   721    
VICKRESS    Milbrow         Weobly    6a   721

If so then the children on the previous post are issue of >William Vickress and Ellen Morris...
Herefordshire: ALLEN (Colwall), CARTWRIGHT (Kington & Almeley), DAVIS (Colwall), EVANS (Pembridge), GODSALL (Colwall), JONES (Whitbourne), MORRIS (Kington & Kinnersley), MOUND (Wormsley), TIPPINS (Staunton-on-Arrow), RODWAY (Colwall), VICKRESS (Wellington & Hope-under-Dinmore), WATKINS (Almeley)
Shropshire: MOUND (Hope Bagot)
Worcestershire: PARKER (Kempsey)

I think it is more likely that there was a problem transcribing the marriages, because I think that Milborough is a man.

Looking on the monumental inscriptions website that I gave you on page 2 of this thread, I think that William and Ellen Vickress (nee Morris) are buried at Hope under Dinmore.  Looks like William died in 1936 aged 78.

Ok, on the 1871 census there are 2 Milbro's!!!

One is Milbro Vicarage aged 22, a nursemaid born in Stanton Herefordshire, living at Upper House, Lyonshall.

The other is Milbrough Vickress aged 18, unmarried sister in law born in Hope Under Dinmore living with Mary Vickress aged 60, widow born Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire.  They are living in Marden, Herefordshire

*Frederick Vickress, died Jun 1891, Kington (I think 74 y.o). Father of Elizabeth, Milbrow, Diana and William
*Daisy Elizabeth Vickress, born Sep 1904, Kington.
*Elizabeth Vickress married on Sep 1876, Kington (I didn't double-check it but I think it's the same one who married Samuel Morris). presumably daughter of Frederick
*William Vickress, married Jun 1889 in Kington (ditto, but I think he's the one who married Ellen Morris, Samuel's younger sister; i.e. a brother and a sister from the Morris family married a sister and a brother of the Vickress family. again, presumably son of Frederick
*William Vickress, born Sep 1845 Leominster. Could this be the same William as above, Elizabeth's brother, who married Ellen Morris in 1889?
*William Vickress, born Mar 1859 Presteigne (seems unlikely to be connected).
*Milbrow Vickress, married Mar 1887 in Weobley. Is this the Millborough who was with Elizabeth in Radnorshire in 1851?
*William Frederick Vickress, born Jun 1898 in Weobley. Milbrow's or William's son perhaps? Children of William and Ellen
*Eleanor Susan Vickress, born Sep 1895 in Weobley. Ditto.
*Ann Drusilla Vickress, born Dec 1893 in Weobley. Ditto.
*John Vickress, born Jun 1890 in weobley, ditto.
*Milbrow Vickress, born Mar 1892 in Weobley. ditto.



Can anyone confirm any of the above? :)
