Yep definitely!

So I have a birth certificate for "a" Margaret...the parents match with the censuses I have found. But have to wait for marriage certificate to come before I can be sure it is the right Margaret (and they don't do pdfs of marriages) - watch this space!

Oh how I hate it when this happens......

So the marriage certificate came back and her father is Ebeneezer, a sawyer, not Thomas a sawyer.....although there is an illegible squiggle to the side...she was just 17 in December 1862 which fits with a birth in 1845..so can anyone find Ebeneezer with a daughter Margaret in 1851? I think she is a servant in 1861...

This is an article re Dinah's very sad death:

I have copied it in full to 'my keepsafes' here:

Shr was a widow at that time so Ebenezer had obviously died between 1881 and 1888.

Dea - brilliant. The Trotts (Joseph and Hannah - presumably Margaret's sister) were the witnesses at the marriage! So that seals it I think!!!

I'll digest the rest at my leisure!
