Really need some help with finding a marriage/descendants from Lizzie Morgan, parents John Thomas Morgan and Ellen Davies. According to a family bible she was born on December 14th 1900 in Seven Sisters and married on August 8th 1927, but doesn't say who she married, her full name is given as Rachel Elizabeth Morgan in the bible, she died in the 1950's?

The marriage should be on freebmd........as should her death, once you know the surname to look for

Have you looked for/found her birth?

Her parents did not marry until 1st January 1902 Neath Register Office. It was a 2nd marriage, he was a widower, she was initially his servant looking after a child from his first marriage.

So how old was he on marriage

Have you got them on any census?

Angela

Angela Report 20 Jun 2015 08:59

Thats the parents. I'm in contact with someone whose father was the illegitimate child of Lizzie, we've both been unable to find out anything about her,apart from what I've posted, she had 3 sisters and you can find all their marriages but Lizzie is a mystery?
Lizzie's mother Ellen is my grandfathers sister, thought maybe a fresh set of eyes would be some help?

He was born in the workhouse and he was a secret and he was brought up to believe Lizzie was his sister not his mother!
