And i think that this may be a possible for her original marriage to George Chandler as they were both born in Hampshire.

Good Morning. I'm a little more awake now.

From the baptism of their son Edgar she would appear to be Jane Elizabeth

Edgar Fleming
Record Type: Baptism
Estimated Birth Date: abt 1887
Baptism Date: 22 May 1887
Father's Name: Thomas Fleming
Mother's Name: Jane Elizabeth Fleming
Parish or Poor Law Union: Kensington St Barnabas
Borough: Kensington and Chelsea




So tracing back from the Niece Constance Chandler who is with them in 1911 . Looks like a second marriage for Ellen as George Chandler is noted as son and Constance as Niece but probably Grand daughter

1901

Wm Miller
Age: 57
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1844
Relation: Head
Spouse's Name: Ellen Miller
Gender: Male
Where born: Belgrason, London, England
Civil parish: Hammersmith
Ecclesiastical parish: Christchurch West Kensington Park and St Matthew
County/Island: London
Household Members: Name Age
Wm Miller 57
Ellen Miller 57
Geo H Chandler 20
Ellen B Chandler 16
May Johnson 6
Ecelyn Johnson 5
>>Constance Chandler 4
Geo Moore 2
Harry Pheasant 1

and here is Ellen with daughter Jane E in 1871.

1871

Jane E Chandler
Age: 6
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1865
Relation: Daughter
Father's Name: George Chandler
Mother's Name: Ellen Chandler
Gender: Female
Where born: Blackwell, Middlesex, England
Civil parish: Fulham
Ecclesiastical parish: St Mary
Town: Fulham
County/Island: London
Household Members: Name Age
George Chandler 29 >>>>>Carman
Ellen Chandler 27
>>>Jane E Chandler 6
Fanny Chandler 4
Alice F Chandler 3


and this is the marriage (Mistranscribed)

Jane Elizabeth Chandler
Age: 20
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1863
>>>Spouse Name: Thomas Haring Fleming on original image
Spouse Age: 21
Record Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 28 Oct 1883
Parish: St Barnabas, Kensington
County: Middlesex
Borough: Kensington and Chelsea
Father Name: George Chandler >>>>>Carman
Spouse Father Name: Thomas Haring >>>>>Labourer


So this Thomas Fleming married Jane Elizabeth Chandler and Thomas Mark Fleming married Jane Mary Griffiths.

Isle of Dogs........Oh I see now. Losing the plot somewhat. I think I am going to give this a break for a while. Not sure whether it is Thomas Mark who married Jane Griffiths or Thomas the son of Bridget who we are supposed to be looking for.
And we need to know which of their children is the next in line.
Thanks Pat

Where is the Isle of Doas Gillian?? Where did that information come from? She says on the census she was born in London?
They must have left for South Africa as soon as they had married.

Why is her maiden name not Griffiths?
If this is her second marriage, marriage certificate with have her Father's name, or children's birth certificate will have her maiden name.

Gillian Report 19 Mar 2011 17:23

I am now looking for my fathers family and have come up against a roadblock. My fathers grandfather was Thomas Fleming who was born in 1863 in fulham when I found him in the 1871 census he was living with his mother Bridget who was 50 and is down as being born in Ireland does anyone know how I can access Irish records. The other problem is he down as having married a Jane Mary Griffithsin 1890 but I dont know her maiden name and the only other information I have is she was born in the Isle of Doas in 1865. If anyone can help I would be grateful Thanks Gill
