thebutler, Hi Susan... this is the marriage, i think in this case as there are so many Doris Smiths, you will not be able to find her without purchasing the marriage cert, both for her age and her father's name .

Name: Doris M Smith
Spouse Surname: Gillies
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1938
Registration district: Maidstone
Registration county (inferred): Kent
Volume Number: 2a
Page Number: 2725
Find Spouse: Find Spouse

Said I wouldn't be back - I lied!
Rose, you very kindly found burial for my William Maurice Powell for me (previous page). I am guessing there is no sign of a baptism?
On the principle of "if you don't ask you don't get", can I be extra cheeky and ask if you can please have a look for anything at all for his father John Horace Powell? No idea of his place or YOB but I guess must have been from around the Surrey area - most likely born around 1800 going by William's birth. I suspect he died before 1841 as no sign of him whatsoever.
Thanks a million.

How long do you need distracting for Rose?

Hi Rose,

Can you find in the 1891 OR 1901 census a Thomas Hutchings (b 1867) Correct birth date .....Holsworthy Devon.

I have him in 1881 down as b 1868? living with his mother Catherine Hoskin b1851and stepfather George Hoskin.

In the 1871 b1868 ? Hosworthy Devon (as a boarder)

I can see in the index of the 1911 there are two Thomas Hutchings one is in Jersey other in London.....so not sure of either of these two. So he might be in Jersey in either in 1891 or 1901 ?

Any findings would be very grateful .
Thanking you Marilyn

Thanks very much for that death record Rose - hope I'm not hogging all your time here. I have very few links to the London area so after this will go away!

And apologies to people who have looked for the following before, I appreciate your time and have kept your info - this is one last try.

I'm looking for the birth of my ggg grandfather William Maurice Powell. He was born about 1829 in Tolworth. His father was John Horace Powell according to his marriage cert.

Thanks you again.
