louis Winterbotham married Janet martin in 1893 they are together on 1901 census.

So it looks as though louis is with the wife of Arthur on 1911 census.No marriage found.

Thank you all for this information particularly Austin WELL DONE I know Deborah is going to be thrilled when I give her all of this great Information

I had Arthur on the 1901 Census with his wife Louisa Alvey but couldn't find him on the 1911 Census, she is with his half brother Louis Winterbotham, this family sure moved partners often.

I have today received the Marriage Certificate for Clara Gretton to James Winterbotham.
16th January 1870 he is a Widower aged 26 years she is a 21 year old Spinster (Born 1849? I have her born 1852 at Hathern Leics )
Witness's Frederick Lowe & Agnes Howes
It is such a disappointment after waiting 22 days for it to arrive as it does not have a fathers name for Clara Gretton, it has James's father as John Winterbotham Cabinet maker.

I have today ordered a Birth Certificate for a Clara Gretton born 1852 Loughborough, hoping this will give me her parents names.
Now I just have to wait 22 days before it gets to me

The fact that Agnes Howe/ Howes is one of the witnesses would seem to confirm the information found (Clara's Grandmother married John Howe- daughter, Agnes born 1854).

Clara's parent's died when she was a small child- she may not have known her father's name.

I'm pretty certain the birth certificate will just give you information you already have- mother Maria (nee Lovett), father Thomas (framework knitter).

GRETTON, CLARA (Mother's maiden name: LOVETT)
GRO Reference: 1852 S Quarter in LOUGHBOROUGH Volume 07A Page 123

I'll be surprised if it states differently- but I'd be interested to know if it does!
