Correct alviegal. That's exactly what I meant! I did see from the opening post that the marriage for the parents had been found.
I don't see a Margaret born 1873 with the couple in 1881. The Margaret with them then is aged only 7 months.
The child Martha Alice died.

Their marriage.

I think rootgatherer meant potential marriages for the children, Mark. If they are with the family in one census but not in the next, they may have got married in that 10 year period.
That is what you are hoping to find out, isn't it? :-D

I only have a Margaret 1873 listed
|
Not seeing any of the family on later census at the moment.
|
For ref.
1881
Name: Mary E. Brooks Age: 5 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1876 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: Peter Brooks Mother's name: Elizabeth Brooks Gender: Female Where born: Farnworth, Lancashire, England Civil parish: Farnworth County/Island: Lancashire Country: England Street Address: 3 Glynn St Education:
Employment status: View image Registration district: Bolton Sub-registration district: Farnworth ED, institution, or vessel: 2a Neighbors: View others on page Piece: 3812 Folio: 43 Page Number: 30 Household Members: Name Age Peter Brooks 32 Elizabeth Brooks 31 James Brooks 7 William Brooks 6 Mary E.

So did the Margaret born 1873 die?
Have you followed the family in later census to narrow the years for possible marriages?

Good Morning
I am seeking information with regards to Elizabeth Anne Parkinson, 1850, Farnworth, Lancashire. She married Peter Brooks in Bolton in 1873 and had the following children, Margaret 1873, James 1874, William 1875, Mary E 1876. I would be interested to know if any of the children married. Thanks
