Hi

This is the only Elizabeth Alice Colman birth on freebmd roughly around her birthyear

Births June qtr 1885 
 
Colman  Elizabeth Alice    Yarmouth  4b 8

See below

IF all his names were specified on his Birth Cert, then of 10 Fred* John Ellis from 1877 to 1881, only one is anywhere near the area needed ..

Births Sep 1877  
 
Ellis  Frederick John    Monmouth  v11a p26

I'll see if he can be found on the 1901 census ...


PS. What was Fred's occupation shown as on the 1908 Cert ?

1901 - RG13/4922; Folio: 29; Page: 23 - West Dean Monmouthshire / Gloucestershire
Coalway Lane End

All born West Dean

William Ellis 48   Head Coal Miner Cutter born West Dean
Elizebeth Ellis 59  Wife
Fredrick Ellis 23  son Coal Miner Cutter
Albert Howell 18   Stepson do
George Ellis 16  son Hod Boy
Henry Ellis 14  son

Tom Perkins 8  Grandson


so, apart from a 2 year age discrepancy, it fits - but cannot be proven yet ....

ah, post crossed - what was Fred's occupation at ,marriage - does it match ?

West Dean was Glos, then Monmouth, so is included in the Welsh section of the 1901 census.

How about Marriage witnesses - any familiar names ?

Ignore the Yarmouth birth reg above - IGI entry shows parents as Charles & Elizabeth

[Necromancer]

shame, just started looking for her in 1901 .....
