This is about the only birth that would fit with "their Annie". I wonder if she just changed her middle name??

Births Mar 1877
PLEASANTS Annie Kerenhappuch Mile End 1c 556

Oh well,the marriage cert will (hopefully) reveal all!

Well spotted Maureen !!

This is strange indeed! - I didn't realise - I had seen that birth and knew it would be connected but didn't think of it as being Annie Louisa.

'Kerenthingywhatsit??' is the one I have shown living with George and Annie on 1901 in Heath Street.

I had traced that she had a son Walter born c 1857 and therefore assumed she was Annie's Grandmother !! and Robert her uncle ??

This just shows the importance of confirming with certificates as this also is a 'very good fit'!

They are obviously all from the same family!

I will explore further........

THANK YOU HEATHER !!!!!!!!!!

I do wish people would not do this - starting several threads.

My only consolation is that most of the info I have spent hours 'slogging away' to find is not already on the other thread - However it could have been a complete waste of my (and other people's) time, which makes me very angry !!

I think I will put this on hold and wait for some further info from Colette !

Just adding this for Maureen...

I have stopped exploring this one for now but just to let you know - I had a look at the 1881 image where Annie was with 'K...........".

All the others were named as sons and daughters but Annie didn't have anything there - perhaps she was a 'grandaughter'? as I can't find her on 1881 with Walter.

The baffling thing is though that there remains the birth reg which you also found! - this would still seem to fit.

Dea,
I was thinking the same thing as Kerzit's is getting a little old to be the mother. And she sure isn't Andrew's mother (on the 1891)-I hope!!!!
Wonder what thread the marriage cert results will pop up on?????

Im afraid I tend not to slog nowdays :) I wait for solid info to be produced first.:) to show some effort on the part of posters.

You are very wise Heather - I really MUST train myself to resist!

Unfortunately, I fear I am 'obsessed' - like a dog with a bone, as they say !!

I will work on it !!

I know what you mean Dea. But it happens so often now. Little bit of info and a whole history produced for someone and they either dont come back or come back and say, Oh, his name was Jack, not Fred.

Im too old to waste my eyes looking :) Once people come up with some solid info they have sought out then I put in my pennysworth :)

Sorry I havent replied sooner been very busy at work today. Firstly let me thank you all for helping, you have uncovered a great deal and as soon as the certs come back I hope to match it up :).

I truly appreciate everything you all do, the things you find are amazing....... it takes me hours and hours maybe even days to find even one little thing.


The other thread was made after this thread, and in the new thread I did post the link to this thread so people could see what others had found in searches etc etc I thought I was doing the right thing im very sorry and I wont do it again.

Once again im sorry but thanks a million to you all, a lot of great findings there.

Will post as soon as the certs come back

Take care
Have a great day
Colette

Hi Colette,

Don't worry - I can see that you DID try to do it right by posting a link to this thread but it was still wrong to start another as people didn't realise from searching on the original that there was a second.!!- You were not to know - we all have to learn.

Anyway, when you get the info from the cert, please post it on the original so we can try to help you further.

Best wishes,

Dea x
