I think Kate Sainsbury is the missing bride from the page below - marrying John P H Maidwell

Deyes James H Dowling Brentford 3a 143
Dowling Beatrice F Deyes Brentford 3a 143
Maidwell John P H Sainsbury Brentford 3a 143

This would make the bride approx 34 yrs old based on your 1879 birth - which seems quite old for a first marriage - as Ozibird, do you have any other info? How does Jessie fit into your tree?

Jessie married George Thompson and had several children.

Where did Maidwell fit in?

This marriage then:

Can any body check this out on 1911?

1911
THOMPSON GEORGE M 1879 32 West Ham Essex
THOMPSON JESSIE F 1879 32 West Ham Essex - born Stepney

Yes... It's Jessie Catherine... not Jessie Caroline

George is husband..... and infant son.... also a George
Other children born later are Albert, Bertha, Jessie, Iris, and Charles
Trying to find their children who would be my cousins
George's sister Minnie married a Maidwell..... that's the connection.

As you know the names of the children, have you looked on Freebmd for possible marriages please?

What was "Minnie" short for please?

Which of the children is your direct line please - no point in anyone looking for descendants that you already know of if they are your siblings.

I don't see a Maidwell marriage to a Jessie, Bertha, Iris or Minnie on Freebmd. Are you certain that the surname was Maidwell?

Is this possibly the marriage.

This looks like a birth from the marriage that Staffslass has posted but I am not seeing Arthur and Minnie on the 1911 census.

P.S. Jessie Caroline is what is on the original 1891. Either the enumerator misread the householder's writing or just made a mistake.

1891 - Could Minnie have been the sister of George Senior?
