Mel
This is not the correct family. I started to go wrong here..
The 1901 censes it only has Ada on it but i do not know where Francis was.
My couple only had 2 children..

I think i may have to have another look at the 1851 for William

Yes that is the correct marriage.
All i have to do more is go backwards and find William parents and Margaret maiden name..
It only taken me about 3 years to get this far as i stopped at this point on the family due to being born/married in India and i just did not now where to go to get the information.

I should also be able to find William somewhere on the 1841 and 1851 if he did not join up until 1853

Morning Tina.

So glad you got more info from the other helpers. Chris and Vera are very good.

Chris
Thank you again for looking. I will go and see what i can order.

Mel
The marriage you found for Joseph and Annie Batt is correct.
The other children marriages are:
Francis to Ada Radnedge in 1896.
George to Sarah Ann Forse in 1900.
Margaret to William Norris in 1889

I do have Francis and George copy of there marriages..
But not Joseph and Margaret yet.


I am going to look through all this information.

Thank you everyone for your replies.

Tina

Couldn't see one for Francis, or Marriage, but other names should help with Mothers Maiden name, hopefully to help carry on...
Order from GRO as normal, Overseas Births.

Thank you everyone for your replies.

Christine:
This is the correct family as William Stone grand daughter married Eli Elliott son. Thank you as i have not been able to find this. So at least i do know that William was alive in 1891. William age was 55

Also the 1901 census you have for Margaret could be right as i says she was living in Bristol but from Derby. I notice if had her profession as a Nurse. I wonder if that was how they met in India?

I do not know if Margaret had a middle name but its still possible with the death you found. It just the age on it put her about 5 years older

Mel:
This could be the correct death in 1895 then as i still can not find anything in 1901. The age on there is right as well at 59.
Shame could not find anything on the passenger list.. But it does seem to look like he was in the Fusiliers

Chris:
I do not have Find my past to be able to find this information:
I follow down from Francis C Stone. I have not ordered oversea certificates before would i have to order it on Find my past website.
Was you able to find the information on Francis as he was not on the list above.
Does this site also show marriages in India??
All the information you sent says he was in the 23rd foot

Vera
As Chris sent the birth details for the children showing the 23rd foot then this could be for William. AS at the moment i did not know why William was in India. But all this information i am now thinking that William was in the Fusiliers and met Margaret in India as she was a nurse...

I will have to try and confirm so of this..
If i could maybe find the details for Francis birth and order his certificate.

I suppose it is possible that William's father took his family to India before the 1841?
