Hi,
Can anyone out there help ?
i am searching for my maternal great grandmother mary ellen hall, i have found her on the 1911 census when she was married to my great grandfather john william denny in skipton yorkshire, it does not state her place of birth on the census only ox wrote in red,from the 1911 census i worked her DOB to 1877 but have since got a copy of her wedding cert and now believe it to be 1876 as she was 28 when she got married on 26/12/1904, the only info i have for her is what is on the marriage cert, she was a domestic servant, her father was john hall,he was deceased at time of wedding and his occupation had been a quarryman, i dont know place of her birth, mothers name or of any siblings,i cant find any trace of her before she was married, i am hoping theres some good detectives out there who may be able to help!! many thanks :-) :-) :-) :-)

Hi,
thanks for your quick response, i have also looked at this one , i was a bit unsure because of the 1875 DOB for mary ellen , when i thought it was 1877 or 76. Would i be able to find out when this john hall actually died ? because if i found that to be before 1904 it would give me a little more evdence that i could be on the right track.
i am fairly new to this , but i seem to have been able to trace my great grandads side pretty easy but im stuck with mary ellen,
thanks again maddie :-)

just interesting to note on 1911 census one of her sons is Thomas James and the Mary Ellen in 1881 has two brothers Thomas and James but probably a coincidence

the servant ties in and DOB is near, if i can find this mary ellen in an earlier census and her dad is called john and is a quarryman it could be , is there an easy way of tracing ancestors that worked as servants not living with their familys

don't be put off by the age on the death reg - it is only as good as the person registering the death knows.

Who were the witnesses on the marriage certificate please?

jmj25 Report 29 May 2013 17:14

the witnesses on mariage cert are arthur ernest denny who i believe is the grooms brother and the other witness is annie whitehead but i dont know who she is, what it does say on the marriage cert is at time of marriage mary ellen lived on high street which i am guessing must be in skipton

FOR ELIMINATION ONLY

I thought I was onto something here, as this John Hall's a stone quarryman. Mary E's YOB's a little out, but that's not unusual in censuses.
And he has died before 1901.

BUT in 1911, Mary E is shown as Mary Elizabeth, and is single.
Another theory bites the dust!

thanks,
i did look at this but was unsure, thought maybe john hall was now deceased, and the older children would have moved on but thought maybe mary ellen and elizabeth would have still shown on there along with jane.
would you guess that john must have died after 1885 as the younger children still have his surname ?
