marriage info and 1901 census look up Arthur W Montague in Lambeth District

[SC]

If anyone has access to the marriage records for Lambeth District I would appreciate some information on a marriage that took place in the Mar Qtr of 1894 between an Arthur W Montague and Amelia J Lewin
I cannot find them in 1901 and I have no birth or further info on Arthur
Amelia Jane was born in Finsbury in 1867, her father is Arthur Lewin b 1834 in Billesdon, Leics
The marriage may not have lasted very long as in 1911 Amelia Montague is a widow age 43 and living back in Leicester with her recently widowed father so Arthur must have died by the census date in 1911

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks SC

Not been able to find a church marriage so far

Where was Arthur born and did you find him on any census

Can't help with  parish record, however there is this marriage notice:

"MONTAGUE - LEWIN. - On the 15th inst. at Brixton,
Arthur Wm. Montague to Amelia Jane, only daughter
of Arthur Lewin, late of St. Mary Bourne."

   Wednesday,  Jan. 24, 1894, Southampton Herald

There is a notice about an Arthur W MONTAGUE in Navy Appointments being appointed to the Excellent in 1886 - a possibility?

Also, in case you don't know, there is an article about the inquest into Arthur LEWIN's wife Jane's death in 1883. Happy to transcribe or send you a copy if you'd like.

Hi maddys 52 and louisa maud

Sorry I dont have any birth info for Arthur and so not found on a census yet

Thank you for the marriage details, pity it doesnt give any further info on Arthur
however I would be interested in the details on the Navy Appointment as it might give some more clues on Arthur

If you could send me a personal message with the details of Jane's death that would be appreciated I assumed she had died in childbirth -she was only 29 and had just lost 2 children
Arthur Lewin moved back to Leicestershire and re-married

Thanks so much
SC

Just a correction to the info I wrote in my last reply about Jane Lewin so as not to cause any confusion 
It was Arthurs son Morley Lloyd Lewin (Amelia Jane's brother) who also married a Jane and she is the one who died age 29 after losing 2 very young children a year apart and leaving Morley with Arthur Henry and another Amelia Jane
This whole section of my Lewins has far too many repeated names to keep track of

SC, will send you a pm - Jane (Arthur LEWIN's first wife  ) died of "apoplexy" aged 38, very sad.

I see Amelia was born 1867.  You may want to bear this birth in mind for when you get the 1894 marriage cert

Arthur William Montague June qtr 1866 Brentford 3a 60  - mmn Brownson

Henry William Montague (full age - gentleman) married Elizabeth Brownson (18) 2.1.1865
Fathers - William Montague - gentleman & William Brownson - farmer

Looking on FreeBMD, I see there are only 11 Arthur MONTAGUEs born since registration began up to 1878, and of those only 4 that are simply "Arthur" or "Arthur W".

The Arthur MONTAGUE born 1876 at Shoreditch, appears to have been in trouble with the law and is described as "insane", having "a condition of mental enfeeblement; he is childish" - in 1906 and 1908 - and there is no mention of a wife in Court Proceedings.

The most likely appears to be Arthur W MONTAGUE born 1866 at Brentford, mmn BROWNSON. He was baptised Arthur William at Southwark on 13 March 1867, parents Henry (gentleman) and Elizabeth, of 6 Grosvenor Place.

That family is fairly easy to find in the census records.

However, I suspect the easiest way to find your Arthur MONTAGUE is to get the marriage certificate and see what profession, his father's name etc. 

Carole posted while I was typing, so will post this anyway.

Hi Carole and maddys52

Thank you both for the latest replies and all the information
I also had decided the best bet for the birth year for Arthur William was probably the one in Brentford
I will look into this a little further now

Thanks SC
