Ellen Elizabeth Marshall dad Charles, she married Albert E Yates 1894 they had daughter Ellen Elizabeth Yates 1897 Shoreditch.

they are together in 1901.

This looks like Violet lilian Christie/Christy off 1911 census.

Violet Lilian Yates born Edmonton 1908 mum nee Marshall V03a P545.

Marraige:
Name: Henry Alexander Christie (Carman)
Spouse: Elizabeth Ann Tunstall
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 6 Dec 1875
Parish: St George, Camberwell
Borough: Southwark
Father Name: Alexander Christie (Stoker)
Spouse Father: John Pain Tunstall (Commercial traveller)
Register Type: Parish Register
Witnesses: Francis James Wheddon & Jane Lacey

There is a note in the register to say that the original had Elizabeth's father as John Price Tunstall (instead of pain) and asked for a fresh entry to be certified.

Connection to the Nunn name above on 1939 ??

Malcolm Nunn who has a tree on her with Leslie Christie 1910 and Royston Christie 1915.

Royston Charles Christie 3/1/1915 died 2001.
He married 1936 and had a son and daughter.

Would the Ellen Elizabeth Christie 1876 be Nellie mother of Violet,leslie etc.
Nellie was commonly used for Ellen.

Hopefully the marriage cert will confirm his father Derek. He had no reason to lie on the certificate.

PH- I think Ellen E is Nellie Marshall

Derek

Derek Report 28 Jan 2017 15:37

I think my concern is that if this Henry bad boy Christie led a double life and was lying about his double life and possibly place of birth as well as theft could he have lied about his parents etc.

I will see off for Henry and Florries marriage certificate but am I correct in saying that Elizabeth Ann Tunstall married to Henry Alexander Christie are Henry bad boy Alexander Christie's parents lol

Mary

Mary Report 28 Jan 2017 15:06

I was beginning to think that his dad was also doing the same as Elizabeth Ann is married 1881/91/1901 but widowed in 1911.

1911 105,Milton street Southend on sea
Elizabeth Christie widow married 32 years 2 children 2 alive (They did have Elizabeth Ann 1876 but she died 1876)

She was independent in a 8 roomed House.

Sorry Tiggit- I was getting carried away! Thought you were referring to the double life of Henry (1877).

Hi AustinQ

I'm a bit confused (doesn't take much) was that an answer to my post? If so I was referring to the father of Henry, also leading a double life

AustinQ

AustinQ Report 28 Jan 2017 14:29

The second article in 1915 states age as 39- makes his age about correct. I'm pretty certain the double life man is the Henry that married Florrie.

And the number of children between the two women is correct.

Poor bloke must have been exhausted :-)

He had 4 children with Florrie:
