Cant find marriage
« on: Wednesday 26 August 09 21:18 BST (UK) »
Hi,
    I am having trouble finding a record of my great grandparents marriage, Alfred Weston Russell and Ethel Elizabeth Sait. Its kind of complicated as I know Alfred changed his name from Russell to Weston sometime after 1922, as they are both registered under Russell on my Grandads birth certificate. Also Ethel wasmarried before to a Herbert Taylor in 1915. Have searched all name combinations both in England and Scotland but with no luck.
My Grandad was born in Dover but they moved to Scotland soon after.
Ethel was english and Alfred was scottish so could have been either.
Any ideas??
Justine
Russell:- Dover, Stirling (scotland), Kilmarnock
Sait:- Kent, Dorking, Surrey, Guildford, Godalming, Hambleton
Thomson/ Thompson:- Dundee,
Fisher:- Dundee
Whitton:- Dundee
McCall:- Kilmarnock, Stirling
Harrison:- Surrey, Dorking

Just a couple of ideas but neither of them are really good matches.  May be you have looked into them already.

Mar 1919
Frank C Weston
Ethel E Taylor
Bath 5c 983

Sep 1925
Allan R Russell
Ethel Taylor
Bury 8c 1245

Yeah thats only names I got too  ???
Surely it couldn't be that wrong!
Thats the Herbert Taylor I got, found a record of their divorce in 1921. So close to my grandads birth there was a speculation way back that maybe Herbert was his father but no it was Alfred all along. Think they had an affair and that was the grounds of divorce.
Maybe they never got married and she just took his name?!

If you have found the divorce it might be an idea to send for a copy - could give you some information that will be useful.

Is the Alfred G Taylor b. 1915 mmn Sait her child with the first husband?  Bit strange to name child with second husband Alfred as well?
