Hi Marion, I will scan it and send to you, no probs
Also had a quick look and can't find a Jones marriage either but going to keep digging and will let you know if anything pops up even if I just throw it past you to see if you think any info is viable.
Don't have any details of Florence so anything that you have will be great.
We also have the Moore name in the family my wife's Grandmother was one, her parents were  Henry's daughter Isabel Sarah Mitchell b1891 married Samual Moore b1880, must be a connection !
Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve.
Thank you for that re the certificate. If you do find anything give me a shout!
I'll give you some details that I have on Florence to begin with - and I have a question about Isabel Sarah.

As I said Florence was in the Dorchester Workhouse in the 1911 census. She had a base born dau named Dorothy Jessie D. MITCHELL on 16 Jul 1911 (who eventually dieD on 26th June 1992.) Then Florence married Percival MOORE in the Sep Qtr 1917 in the Blandford Region, and then had two children - Nora V MOORE (b Sep Qtr 1918 Blandford Region) and Waler C O MOORE b 15 Aug 1920.

Dorothy Jessie married Charles HARDY (which is where my relationship comes in - Charles was my 1st cousin once removed) on 14 Jul 1934 and they went on to have four children. (Not sure how many details of the family you would like!)

Re Isabel Sarah - I have her as one of 10 children to Henry James and Elizabeth MITCHELL - (with one child extra from Elizabeth from unknown partner). I have Isabel only down as Sarah, and as being born abt 1892 in Melcombe Bingham but no details on her marriage etc.

If you want any other information that I may have just let me know - might be easier if I send you a report of the details I have on Henry and his descendants - let me know.

Cheers, Marion

Hi Marion, I have printed your posts off and will take them home tonight to show my wife, she's more clued up than me as its her direct line. At least I know its the correct Henry this time as my father in law and his twin sister Mary both remember Aunt Jessie which I presume is Florence's daughter. I will ask her if she has any photo's, I know she has Elizabeth Mitchell (Granny Bet) so will send them if you are interested and any certs she has. I am on ancestry as stevewest1960 so I can always open the tree for you and you can see what info we have,
thanks, Steve
