Find Ancestors

Hi All,

I am a newbe on here doing my own family history but a friend has come to stay and has asked me if I can get help with one of her ancestors,

Her name is Fanny Young, DOB 15th Sept 1878 and lived in Cowes, Isle of Wight,
We think her maiden name was Taylor but cant find anymore info, before or after, siblings etc,

Any help would be great
Thanks

Below is usually helpful, things Isle of Wight...

(do you mean Maiden Name of her Mother was Taylor?)

For our reference:

So possibly Fanny's marriage?

Marriages Jun 1893 (>99%)
Taylor Fanny Eliza Alverstoke 2b 1062

Or this one ??

Fanny Eliza Taylor

Registration Year: 1896
Registration Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep
Registration district: Christchurch
Inferred County: Hampshire

Records on Page:
Name
Fanny Eliza Taylor
William Henry Young

EDIT:
No, not the 1896 marriage.
In 1911 William Henry is alone with their children, and Fanny's name is scored out, with the note "lunatic [7 ?] years"

Have you tried looking for a marriage on freebmd?

Start with the most obvious record - then progress from there

In Jun 1893, she would have been 14

This is possibly more feasible, in view of the district

Marriages Sep 1896 (>99%)
Lighting Ellen Christchurch 2b 1243
PHILPOTT John Thomas Christchurch 2b 1243
Taylor Fanny Eliza Christchurch 2b 1243
Young William Henry Christchurch 2b 1243

Confirming that of the possible pairings above, Philpott m. Lighting

No proof without the daughter's birth cert that the marriage is relevant

Can't - at present - see her in 1901 or 1911

Below doesn't relate as well does she?...(as she came up on link!)

According to a tree on Ancestry (not always reliable) Lilian's father was named Frederick

Your friend needs the daughter's birth cert to confirm parent's names and father's occupation

A PDF version is cheaper than a hard copy

The Fanny who married William Henry is, in any case, too old - unless the DOB given in 1939 is wrong.

I agree, you need Dorothy's birth cert.
