I am trying to trace the marriage of Edward Green & Ann Curtis. They appear in the 1871-1911 censuses, living in Billinghay, near Sleaford. Listed on the censuses are five of their children - Sarah Jane, born June quarter of 1868, William Edward, born Sept quarter of 1871, Lucy Ann, born Sep quarter of 1873, John, born March quarter of 1876 and William, born Sept quarter of 1878.
The GRO online index gives their mother's maiden surname as 'Curtis', except for William Edward, given as 'Cart'. There is a step-daughter, Ellen Carr, aged 8 on the 1871 Census, but there is no entry on the GRO online index in this name, only an Ellen Curtis, born March quarter of 1863 with no mother's maiden surname given.
I can find no marriage in the whole of the GRO index for Edward Green & Ann Curtis, but there is an entry in the March quarter of 1863 in Sleaford for Edward Green and Ann Carter. I am therefore wondering if Ann's maiden surname could possibly have been incorrectly registered.
If anyone has access to the parish records for this area I would be most grateful if they could search for this marriage.
Many thanks.
Geoff
