Yes, that makes better sense, thanks. |

Its very strange, because there is the 1922 Caroline Frances as above, and also the 1926 Caroline. Caroline F went on to marry Charles Collins, and in her will it says she died at 65 Buckingham Palace Road. |

Thanks, I just found the christening record - but it seems they named 2 daughters Caroline |

It's not unheard of to have two children with the same name even though the older one hasn't died, though must have been confusing - or maybe CF was known as Frances!. |

Maybe the 1841 enumerator got the daughters Harriet and Caroline mixed up ? |

I had an amusing thought yesterday - wouldn't it be funny if Anne's paternal grandmother, Agnes M Kelly, was related to Peter Kelly; that her son Douglas was posted to Scotland during the war so went to visit his Scottish relations, and met and married Anne's mother there in 1944. |

Well that's a blow - I've had an email from GRO saying they can't trace the marriage of Montague Harrington with Agnes Kelly. I copied all the details from FreeBMD, so can only assume they got it wrong somewhere. I was counting on that to give me Agnes' father's name and occupation - I think I might have found her, but without anything concrete to go on its very difficult. |

On Freebmd, one of them has the page number Mistranscribed. Agnes is page 915 and Montague is page 916. You could try reordering it with the other page number. |

Have looked at the images. Agnes's is clearly page 915 but the image for Montague's is blurred. Looking at the other numbers on the page, I think it should be 915. Pity, the GRO didn't look a page either side! |

I sent them a copy of what it showed on FreeBMD, and have received a reply which looks as if they are going to send the certificate after all. Fingers crossed. |

That is so kind of you, I was worried I had been asking too much of you. If you're not careful, I'll ask you to help with my German great grandfather :-) |

Well, if you really mean it. I will start a new thread for Johann Karl Wilhelm Gobel. |

On the Ellison family tombstone in Killeshill, Dungannon - http://prntscr.com/mphiff - there are a couple of Bleakley children. I can't find them, or their connection to the Ellisons. Any ideas please? |

Looking at the year of birth for the grandchildren, I wonder if they could be great grandchildren? |

Marriage of son Arnold so Adeline on the gravestone is Arnold's daughter b. 1916. I wonder if she married a Bleakley and is the mother of those two children. |
