thank You

charlotte buckley 1853 marriage has her

fathers name on the marriage cert

Was looking at that yesterday Mel. There is this in the papers which pertains to a similar case.

"........Alexander Mitchell, principal officer on board the Port Mahon convict ship, deposed that the two prisoners, Buckley and Andrews, were brought on board the vessel; on being asked their names, Buckley gave his as Simmons, and Andrews that of Ward. On the following morning, Buckley said that he had given a false name, to save his brother, a respectable tradesman....."

09 April 1827 - Sun (London) - London, London, England


This was a huge trial reported in several papers as it was classed as treason to make and circulate counterfeit coin.
Daniel Buckley and Jeremiah Andrews were found guilty. Mary Ann, Daniel's wife and Daniel Pycroft, his brother in law, were found not guilty. Mary Ann Patrick got 6 months hard labour.
Daniel Buckley gave his name as Thomas Simmons. He and Jeremiah were both hanged.

In fact, if you google The Vauxhall Coiners, you will be able to read about them.

No father's name on a marriage cert usually means illegitimate

BUT....the PR shows a name, so it should have been on the cert

thank you for helping me weddingcert never had her parent name on it

On the 1841 that Abby put up further up the page is an Elizabeth Buckley 20 with three children of 3 2 and 1 and ones called Mary so this could be Mary seniors daugther.
