Find Ancestors

Please can someone see if they can find out who Mary Ethal Gray married. She was born in Froddingham, Lincolnshire in 1896. I have checked the 1911 census and cant find her on there so I am assuming she either died or was married.

I have looked for possible marriages on Freebmd and checked these out on the 1911 census without sucess. Please can someone help me as I do not know where to look next.

Thank you for your help

Jane

Have you looked for a death in FreeBMD?

If she was born 1896 wouldn't she have been too young to be married by 1911?

Have you found her family in 1911, possibly she could have been away from home in service.

Christine

Thanks Frances

Yes I have andI couldnt find one for her so I am assuming she married.

All the best

Jane

Thanks ChristineinPortugal

I cant find the family on the 1911 census I did look to see if she was at home. Unless I cant see for looking. I have just checked again and she is not at home.

Thanks again

Jane

Is this her birth, it's the only Mary Ethel I can find?

Births Sep 1890
Gray Mary Ethel Glanford B. 7a 664

What were her parents names?

Christine

Sorry Christine

Yes it is. My eyesight must be getting bad as the 0 looked like a 6 on my tree. Best make an appointment at the opticians.

Her parents were James and Alice Gray.

Even altering that on the 1911 census I still cant find her.
The nearest I can find is Mary Ethal rushfirth b 1892

Jane

This is the family she was with in 1891 and she isn't with them in 1901 either.

Christine

Thanks very much for finding my family on the 1901. I dont know where she was then. Edith Edwards Gray is a mistake She did have a sister called Edith b 1896.
As for that marriage in Louth that could be her. I will go and check the 1911 census and see what that says.

Thanks for your help

Jane

There is a Mary and George Stainton living together and probably his parents are with them on the 1911 census.

Please can you look Mildred and William wood stainton up on the 1901 and see if they are George William staintons parents. Mildred an William were born about 1848. I do not have acess to the census.

Thanks

That musn't be the correct marriage then, sorry.

Christine

Thanks for that Vera

If that information is correct then this is not my family as according to the 1911 she was born in London and I know mine was born in Lincolnshire.

All the best

Jane

Thank you all for trying I will just have to keep on looking. Perhaps she died and they just used the name Mary. One day I will find out.

The 1911 census for James and Alice Gray said two children had died. I knew one was Alexander so Mary must have been the other one.

Thanks again

Jane

Hi,
A big coincidence that her maiden name is also Gray (1911) Still Looking

Regards Vera

Hiya,
Just to recap....her parents were James and Alice.......and she had a brother Alexander all hailing for Louth.

MOst of that is correct. The parents were fron YOrkshire. mary was ? born in Scunthorpe. The other brothers and sisters were
John b 1879 New Holland
Elizabeth b 1882 New Holland
Alexander b 1884 New Holland died 1885.
Hannah b 1886 Scunthorpe
Mary b 1890 Scunthorpe
Edith b 1896 Froddingham
Charles b 1898 Froddingham
James b 1900 Froddingham
Cyril b 1902 Froddingham

These are all in Lincolnshire.The 1911 said two children had died Alexander was one and I thought it was likelly she had had children between Mary and Edith and this child had died. It is now looking like it was Mary who died.

thank you very much for your help

Jane
