Barbara, i have looked for marriages using John Davies and Jane ( no surname) in Leeds where first child was born, Newton, Ashton...nothing.

I would order the cert for Albert Edward ( or possibly Rose Ann ) if you can afford it and check names of parents .

In theory Barbara yes the marriage is too early, but it is the only one, that I can find between John Davies and Jane Greenwood, even using phonetic search on names.

There is of course the possibility that they didn't marry.

Barbara

Barbara Report 18 Apr 2010 12:56

Rambling Rose thankyou for your help. Wouldn't that marriage be too early as Albert wasn't born till1884 and jon would only be 16 I think ??

Julie

Julie Report 18 Apr 2010 12:55

Barbara.......The only marriage i can see is the one that Rose has posted sorry

Barbara

Barbara Report 18 Apr 2010 12:49

Julie can you see anything that confirms the marriage between these two, then I won't have to worry about them any more

Rambling

Rambling Report 18 Apr 2010 12:43

I have widened the search for a marriage Davies to Greenwood but still only one is coming up at a possible date...

Marriages Jun 1876 (>99%)
Davies John Knighton 11b 240
Greenwood Jane Knighton 11b 240

district Knighton spans the boundaries of the counties of Herefordshire, Radnorshire and Shropshire;

Its not impossible that as a coal miner/ worker he should have been elsewhere ..???? can anyone find a marriage ?

Julie

Julie Report 18 Apr 2010 12:41

I think that Hannah & Jane that Flick has put on for the 1901 is the same as the 1871

I wonder if Jane left John & the Children & went back to her mum

Barbara Report 18 Apr 2010 12:37

Julie I think I must be going nuts with this family they all have similar names I have just checked back to my paper work and sorry this Albert is Albert Edward, so the information you have found is correct. You have the patience of a saint with beginners like me.

Julie I think you have found the right family, if they are correct how do I go backwards to confirm if I have the right Jane Greenwood,
Many thanks Barbara
