did you get Joseph & Mary's details from the 1911 census?

If so please could you list it for us or if not where did you get your information from.

I can't find a Joseph Workman on the 1881 census born c1874 in Gloucetsershire (with or without a father Joseph). There are a surprising number of Joseph Workman's, mainly born Worcestershire

edit FMP is the site Find My Past

Struggling to find Ada in 1901


BUT FMP has a Ada L Workman age 2 listed in Worcestershire which I can not find on Ancestry and got no credits left on FMP to check out the entry

mmmmmm.

I really appreciate you looking for me, but neither of them sound right......

I really believe that given Josephs father was a Minister of the church, it would be highly unlikely that they married AFTER, their daughter was born. Also, I would be surprised if it wasnt in Dursley ( and Joseph Snr could have been the minister in charge )......
Perhaps they married before 1898?

Joseph was born in 1874 - so anytime after 1892 perhaps?

Thank you.

In 1901 - Joseph is away in Marylebone , London at Dentistry School.

He & his wife Mary (?) had a child in 1899 called Ada Lily. I havent found them yet on the 1901, but suspect they will either be in Dursley ( Josephs home town - Josephs father - also called Joseph, was a Weslyan Mnister ) or Williton, Somerset - Marys home town.

I am trying to find out more about Mary - particularly her surname & more about her family etc.

Glitterbaby is right - we need a little more, such as the 1901 census or at least a child's name. How do you know the year of marriage?
.There aren't too many Joseph Workmans around so if he married it should be possible to find him.

Which couple are they in 1901 ? The one in Pershore ? if yes then there is a possible marriage in Pershore in 1896. Probably not as wrong area

If not then which family are you looking at in 1901

Gillian Report 27 Oct 2009 15:03

Joseph Workman & Mary ?
