Find Ancestors

I am trying to find my great grandmother Annie Ada Tilbury. I know she married Louis Alfred Stacey in 1890 and I have found her fathers name to be Harry Tilbury. But I am stuck trying to find her birth.

Her marriage took place in Kensington, London. I have already bought one incorrect birth certificate for an Annie Stacey born in Chelsea in 1868. I would be grateful for any help.
Jodie

What was Harry's occupation please on Annie's marriage certificate?

Jodie, have you found her on any census?

Can you confirm what you believe to be her birthplace?

Is this her ?

TILBURY Annie Chelsea 1a 242

On the marriage certificate Harry's occupation seems to read Vetinary Struggiet?!

I have been unable to find her on a census yet either before or after her marriage.

Possible?

TILBURY Annie Chelsea 1a 242

(Why would you by a birth certificate in the name of Stacey?)

Jodie - I think the occupation may be Vetinary Druggist

Sorry meant to write Annie Tilbury! The certificate ref 1a 242 is the one I bought but the fathers name on that is Joseph, not Harry.

The 1871 census from rootgatherer cd be the right one if perhaps they made an error on the fathers name and wrte Henry instead of Harry?

Jodie - Harry is often used for the Nname Henry but that census that I posted the Henry is a Labourer so I don't think that that is the correct family.

What was Louis's occupation on the marriage please?

Can you gives us names for any children that might help please?

Yes thank you MarieCeleste Vetinary Druggist makes much more sense!

Louis was a milkman at the time of marriage.

I am told that they had several children but I only know of 2-
my grandmother Vera and her sister Rose

Not sure how it fits with the Stacey's but this is 'surely' Annie's family in 1891?

Hi Dea,

That certainly looks like itmust be Annie's family with some of her husband Louis' family boarding with them.

Well found, thank you!

Well maybe we need to work backwards

Here is Vera's birth (just to check the area)

Yes that is my grandmother, born in Steyning

I have spent ages trying to look for Louis' family but had no success, thanks Dea

This may be totally the wrong family, but following on from Dea's 1891 find, there is this 1871 showing a daughter Ada A born Belgium. Could this be Annie Ada? Henry's profession at this time was Performer.
