There is a marriage of an Edith L Green to an Edward  King at Doncaster in 1922.

We've got that! See reply #5!

Just waiting for angeljoyvy to come back online to see if it is likely, or if she/he has any other info

  hi guys i have just found out  my grandma had a middle name of louisa,she died 8/7/1986 under her second marriage name which was slack and lived in nottingham at the time,she had 4 children george (who for some reason kept her maiden name of green ) then edward ,flossie and lily ivy my mum who was born in 1926 in the doncaster area,still cant find where grandma or grandad king was born tho,i was told yesterday that grandad came from pontyprid and had a sisiter called harriet,and a brother thomas,edward apparently died at 12 george street skellow doncaster,but cant find it ,grandma king had a brother called jack i think,any help on where they were born would be great specially my beloved grandad
thankyou xx

So the Doncaster marriage with Elsie's middle initial 'L' is looking good then!

Next step then will be to get that marriage cert and see what clues it gives about Edward - age, fathers name and occupation, witnesses etc.

When did Edward die? His age at death will help with finding his birth too.

Looks like her remarriage to Slack was in 1964

forgot to say yes i have also found the marriage ,april,may.june 1922 thanks alot ,im not sure but i think elsie was born in april 1998
thankyou for your help xx

[angeljoyyy]

around 1959 but that is pretty much a guess sorry ,am trying to find his gravestone at the moment tho i feel he may be cremated and taken to pontefract because there was no crematoriom in doncaster around that time 

[angeljoyyy]

sorry meant to say elsie was born 1898

[angeljoyyy]

wow thankyou for finding her marriage to joe slack i had no idea of the yr bless ya,you are fast haha,but i am fairly new ,this is a very heplful site thankyou

So the details (birth and census) that Brevitas found earlier are looking good!

Best to get the marriage cert to confirm her father, to be sure it is the right family.


I cant see a death for Edward King in Doncaster at the right time. I see he married as plain Edward King - does he give a middle name on your mum's birth cert?
Where did the suggestion he was William Edward come from?
