Re: James Rixon and Emma Isabella
« on: Tuesday 18 July 17 20:21 BST (UK) »
The above two persons appear on the 1911 Census living in 43 Baythorne Street, which I assume is in the East End of London. According to the census they were both born in 1846 and were married about 1886. I cannot find the marriage and therefore the spouses maiden name. It says that she was born in Croydon. Can anyone please help me find the marriage. Thanks

No marriage found yet, but I am wondering whether there may be a Scottish connection with this family.  I wonder where Caroline and the children were after 1871?

Alternatively it may be one of those cases where a young couple found that a baby was on the way and didn't make it down the aisle.

James Rixon was actually younger than we thought - birth reg Dec qtr 1867 Mile End Old Town, so only about 19 when daughter Elizabeth was born.

Added: James' birthdate was 25 September 1867, according to his baptism on 7 November 1879 at St Luke's, Mile End Old Town.  Parents: Elijah (a baker) and Martha Louisa.

Elizabeth Isabella Rixon was baptised 9 Aug 1896 at St Paul, Bow Common.

Parents: James (labourer) & Emma, of 36 Robeson St.

No birthdate stated for Elizabeth, but she would have been about 10 years old at this point.
