Louisa YATES of Winterslow
« on: Tuesday 24 January 17 04:57 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find more information on Louisa Yates b.1864 Winterslow, Census 1871 and stated as "visitor "with Richard and Mary Annetts.  I would really like to know who her parents were.  Louisa married and had about six sons, whom I believe all served in WW1.

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

I wonder if Louisa was the daughter of Mary Ann before her marriage to Richard Annetts in 1866?   Mary Ann's surname was Yeats and the GRO birth index has the following birth with no mother's maiden name listed.

This looks  like Ann in 1851  https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGZZ-NGV

However it looks like Ann's birth was registered as Mary Ann

That would certainly make sense.  The age difference is a lot for sisters.  Thanks for the family Search reference too I will look into it.

I had a good look at the family search site and also the new 1941 Census on line for Winterslow, Wiltshire which confirms Mary Yeats as 1wk old and Isaac 25 Agricultural Laborer with his wife, Sarah 20 and Susan (which I presume is short for Susanna) 1 year.  H0107/1164 Book 17 Folio 17 p.18.
I also came across a very detailed account of the Annetts family which Mary Yeats married into and I'm glad I did, because I can see how confusing names can become as there seems to be a Mary Annetts and a Mary Ann Annetts born in that family too!
Do you know if there is any way I can find out the father of Louisa Yeats? :-\

Just for interest, who did she put as her Father on her marriage certificate?

Sorry I've taken a while to reply.  I do not have a copy of Louisa's marriage certificate but the records from Free BMD Marriage Index 1837-1915 give the names of Louisa's husband, William Yates, and two other witnesses: Isaac Noyce and Elizabeth Pearce.  Reg. Dist. Alderbury, Wilts. Vol No. 5a page No. 259.  My cousin has some original documents and states that both Louisa and William had the same surname but may not have been spelt the same way!  Louisa's father's name has not come up on any documents so far.

From the free bmd marriage record in 1886, Isaac Noyce and Elizabeth Pearce are not witnesses to the marriage, they are another couple who marry and happen to share the same record numbers.
