WAIT FAMILY

[SHAZZY65]

Hi Maureen

Thanks for your question, I do believe that I do have relatives in Germany which could be on her side, but it says that she was born in Oxfordshire.

Thanks

That marriage in Marylebone Dec.Qtr 1901 1a 1205  between Henry WEST and Theresa Eva Eilingsfeld!!!! Do you suppose Wait got scrambled into WEST somehow???

Maurenn, you just beat me to it.  I also found it.  I think it might be what Shazzy is looking for.

Shazzy-hate to disagree,but are you looking at the actual image? It says Germany.  Bradwell Grove Oxfordshire is on 2 lines,but nicely bracketed-that's Henry's place of birth,not hers.

Hi Maureen

Funny you should say that because I have the marriage certificate stating that the surname is West so they could have got it wrong, it has his profession as Coal Merchant which is correct, but it has his father as being Richard West Deceased who was a sheppard.

Theresa Eva Eilingsfeld whose father was Josef Eilingsfeld Deceased who was a baker.

And that is as far as I have got, my trail ends here.

Thanks

Hi Maureen

All I have is that Theresa was born in Oxfordshire where I don't know, Henry was born as you say in Bradwell Grove.

Thanks

Shazzy-Have you seen the actual census image for the 1911 census? Not the printed transcription,but the photo of the actual census form filled out by Henry??
