Please can anyone help? :-)
Kate Elizabeth was born in May 1860 & Christening 26 MAY 1860 Primitive Methodist, Newport IOW, the daughter of James Taylor & Maria [Charlotte Riddett] I have her & her family in the census until 1871,
I think ? I have found her in free BMD Marriages Jun 1879 SMITH Joseph William A Camberwell & Taylor Kate Elizabeth Camberwell, I don’t think this is in the “London marriages”???
This checks out with the 1881 census? Kate is 21 born Isle of Wight Hampshire, Joseph W Smith born 1857 Portsmouth Hampshire & daughter Florence 1881, have them in 1911 census,
However I found a Tree for her on An…… please can someone look to see if they have her marriage? & how they are related to Kate, I have tried to find their tree on line.

Thank you,

Ann E

Not sure that Kate Elizabeth married Joseph William Smith. This is them (I think) on the 1891 census. Kate's mother appears to be Elizabeth DUNN ?

Perhaps it is a different family ?

Choccy, Margee, & Maddie, Thank you very much for looking

Oh dear, that is odd, that was looking good, there was only three Kate Taylor born on the IOW between 1855 and 1865, Kate Elizabeth Newport mine, Kate Elizabeth 1861in Cowes & Kate Elizabeth 1863 in Ryde.
I will have to have another search
Thanks,

The marriage in 1879 Camberwell reads Joseph William Alistair Smith a Mariner.


Her father is John Jones Taylor.

Thank you for that Mel,
My Kate farther died 23 Feb 1870, so may be she didn't know his name!! It is a problem with such a common name as Taylor,
There were two Kate Elizabeth married in Cowes neither of them mine.

Thanks,

This death would fit and I am now wondering if this John Jones was Elias John Taylor from the marriage cert. The writing is so bad and they have made a terrible mess of the whole thing by putting names etc in wrong places and crossing them out.
