Yes, I found that marriage (and possible death), so perplexed about birth, too many deaths for Ellen or Nellie in the area to confirm birth year.

I think we need Doreen to return with some more information about her Mother, such as year of birth and place, and which certificates she has or intends to order.

Have not yet looked to see if Ellen or Nellie could have been a Helen, or it was a second name.

Don't see any suitable Eleanor (or variant), nor Hel*.

Many thanks for all the info. My mother was born in Lymm, Cheshire in 1920 her name was Ellen, she was named after her mother,Ellen Johnson. this Ellen married my grandfather Charley in 1903 in the Runcorn District. Charlie went on to marry twice more. The last time he married was in 1949. The Burgess family are unknown to me. The Nellie who was born in1901 is not my mother. i think that somewhere along the way some info was confused.I am still searching for more relatives and appreciate the help.Many thanks, Doreen.

Doreen


any confusion was caused by the fact that you did not provide and dates, and we were all fumbling around in the dark!


We do ask that all information known be provided


In addition, you called your mother Nellie, not Ellen



I guess we start back at the beginning again, and try to help you

I note that we should also have been looking for CHARLES HENRY Broughton, according to his marriage registration

SylviaInCanada

four our information ................



Frodingham, his place of birth on the 1911, is in Lincolnshire

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 25 Sep 2014 00:41

you said Charles died in 1954 in Wilmslow, and born in Lymm ....................


and this looks like his death registration


Deaths Mar 1954 (>99%)
BROUGHTON Charles 73 Bucklow 10a 116


His age is shown as 73 ................. which gives a birth year of approximately 1881



BUT the Charles Broughton who married Ellen Johnson was born about 1865, in Frodingham, Lincolnshire




so we still have a MAJOR problem!



are you certain sure that all your information is correct?

I am completely frustrated with this family!



Are we looking for Charles H Broughton who married Ellen Johnson in 1903, and was apparently born in 1865 in LINCOLNSHIRE



or are we looking for Charles Broughton who died in Lymm in 1954 age 73, and thus was born approximately 1881

ON that 1911 census, Charles is from Frodsham,(NOT Frodingham) and his age looks like 26 (NOT 46)

I checked everything on that 1911 census ............... but I forgot to check the birth place

OOPS



I did look at his age, and was a bit confused, but thought that it was indeed 46

Frodsham is about 3 miles from Runcorn, and if he was indeed 26, then that makes his birth about 1885
