Just for the heck of it-this is the Mary Elizabeth who ends up in Horsham as Garman. She does have a sister Anne.

She seems to have it-knows the father's name at any rate.

What's driving me crazy is that there aren't that many Douch doings in Horsham but there's this one:
Marriages Sep 1911
Douch Rosie I Horsham 2b 711

Collins Harold V Horsham 2b 711

I'm wondering if that's Rosina Lydia???

And a few births for what looks like this couple:
Marriages Jun 1907
DOUCH Mary Elizabeth Reigate 2a 422
GARMAN Edward Reigate 2a 422

Strange.

Well I would say that the Alice she is thinking is 'hers' on 1881 is most certainly the one who started off as a Gore and therefore NOT the one she needs.

SO - we really need Lorraine to come back with further info as I am sure that her Annie/Alice is not the same one !!!

I wonder if she has that marriage cert ?

OK-for some reason I think we're looking at this marriage:
Marriages Sep 1916
Douch Annie Light Horsham 2b 643
Light Henry Douch Horsham 2b 643

Lorraine said something about Alice known as Annie later on,etc. married 1916,lied about her age....

Obviously not the one we're looking at then.as she married as Alice Florence Gore (although the cert was later changed to read Alice Flora.).

Thank you Maureen. - My head is 'whirring' :-0

I am sure she was after Alice but the other one was confusing matters !!! - And WHY are there SO many Mary Ann's among this lot ???

I wish I could find the Gore family on 1871 - Thomas will still be alive as they didn't have Alice until c 1873, but they did have another child born before 1871:

Well - This is turning into an even deeper mystery !!! - Please bear with me as I am working to sort it all out !! :-S

John Douch WAS married twice - both times to a Mary Ann !!! - Not the one we started off with though !

I think the first one you have as Mary Ann Russell is correct but then she changes between 1871 and 1881 because he then married Mary Ann Gore in 1875 !!

about John Douch
Name: John Douch - Bricklayer.
Age: Full Age
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1875
Spouse Name: Mary Ann Gore
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 1 Aug 1875
Parish: Walworth St John the Evangelist
Borough: Southwark
Father Name: John Douch - Bricklayer
Spouse Father Name: Robert Gore XXX - Image says Robert BEST - Chairmaker !!
Register Type: Parish Register

Both bride and groom had been widowed!
His address 3 Barlow Flush ???
Her's - 6 Osborne Hill

Witnesses : J Walker ?? + Hannah Walker.

I had been tracing him back because on 1911 it says that they had had 6 children - 5 still living and one had died.
I had found a lot more than 6 children and so was curious !

Also, it said they had been married 56 years (which was wrong!!) - the image said 36 - the Gore marriage fitted!

I had also found that on 1891, living next door was Joseph Douch, their son, now married, and living with them another couple, Simon Rowe and his wife Mary A (YES - ANOTHER ONE !!!)

Following this through, I found:

Marriages Dec 1889

It all links up...........

P.S. - Can someone bring me back to reality and tell me who we actually want to find - Is it Alice?

This does give us a few more options for her name??

Will sort my notes and come back in a while.

Looking at the 1871 image, there are 2 x John Douch.

The head is John age 46 married to ELIZABETH age 46

Lodger John age 23 married to MARY A age 21.
Their children
Joseph 2
John 1

The other lodgers being
Thomas Shroder
Mary A - wife
Lydia - daughter
Alice - daughter.

So it is probable that the Elizabeth Douch death in 1897 does not apply to this family unit

Lorraine Report 8 Feb 2012 11:38

if john and mary are indeed brother and sister why would they list as husband and wife in the 1881 census ?????? or could that be a mistake on the census record and no wonder so many people are confused as i have several people who match my tree who think the childrens parents are john douch and mary ann when they are siblings lol oh deer ! but it would make sence if they were siblings in 1871 and she (mary a ) moved her husband and family in with her brother i know the surname douch made several spelling changes over the years
thank you so much for all this help i will try and find the marriage record for mary a to thomas and order that and see what we get
thank you again :-D

Dea Report 8 Feb 2012 11:36

Ahhh - I think I see the confusion... (or at least 'my' confusion !! :-D)

On the 1871 there is a John Douch c 1825 and his wife Elizabeth.

Same house but marked as lodgers are John Douch (c 48) and his wife Mary A + 2 children (details already posted)

Another set of Lodgers underneath are Thomas Schroder, his wife Mary A + children (Details posted above.)

It is the older John who was married to Elizabeth (presumably the parents of John and the other Mary A (now married to Thomas) ???

I think !!!!!!!!!!!
