Rose Brady and Thomas Symes
« on: Thursday 26 April 12 18:52 BST (UK) »
Hi

Wondering if anyone visits the records office in Reading and wouldn't mind taking a peek at something.

Thomas Symes and Rose Brady, married Parish of the Holy Trinity, Windsor, 14th July 1891.  (Army marriage - would the records office have this info...?)

I've hit a bit of a brick wall as I have two Rose Brady's born around the same time a few miles apart so I need her fathers name to verify which one is my Rose Brady.

Would appreciate any help.

Many thanks    :)

Hi,

There is an on-line family tree with a Rose Brady married to Thomas Absolom Symes (1891)

Rose's parents are listed as Edward Brady (1831 - 1891) and Mary Hickey (b. 1845)

These trees are best used as a guide but not conclusive.

Hi JJen

I've seen this tree but I don't think it is correct as Edward Brady lived most of his life, in the army,  in India with his family.  The family were in England when Rose was a young child (1871 census) but according to his army service record he returned to India in 1873 and lived there for a further 18 years or so.

It is possible that this is the Rose I'm looking for but this Rose was 'born at Sea' and in later census's the Rose I'm looking for lists her birth place as Ireland.

I think the only way I can discount this Rose is to see who her father is on the marriage record.
