Hello,

I have an ancestor, called Sarah Ann Gruton. From what i understand, she married a man called Daniel Judd, who was born in 1844, in 1863. However, I have found some conflicting censuses, that imply that at the same time, she was married to someone called Abraham Judd, how is this possible? I have attached some useful biographical information, on the people in question below:

Daniel Judd
1844–1899
BIRTH JANUARY 1844 • Ongar, Essex
DEATH APRIL 1899 • Epping, Essex, United Kingdom
3rd great-grandfather
Found in the 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881 and the 1891 censuses.
Parents: James Taxbey Judd (1811-1878) and Ann Stanes (1811-1886)

Sarah Ann GRUTON
1845–1914
BIRTH ABT 1845 • Coopersale, Essex, England
DEATH 1914 • High Ongar, Essex, England
3rd great-grandmother
Found in every census mentioned above and below.

Abraham Judd
1843–1898
BIRTH MARCH 1843 • High Ongar, Essex, England
DEATH DEC 1898 • Chelmsford, Essex, England
husband of 3rd great-grandmother
Found in the 1851, 1871, 1881 and the 1891 censuses.
Parents: William Judd (1806-1853) and Susan Flack (1808-1897)
__________________________________________________________________

There seem to be two different marriages, with different children, but there are some records, to suggest that some of the children belong to both Daniel and Abraham Judd. Needless to say, it would be good to know, if they are two separate marriages, and which children belong to who. It would also be good to know, my correct line of ascendance/descendance.

Kind regards,
From Edward Powell

Which of Sarah (Gurton) Judd's children is your proven direct ancestor?

Rambling

Rambling Report 27 Jan 2018 19:13

Erika, as the name sounded familiar and had ticks against the name on FMP I checked messages and the link is through the later marriage of William Ernest Judd, child of Daniel and Sarah (nee Cain), and Agnes Haley... they are together on the 1891 census you posted.

Edward

Edward Report 28 Jan 2018 15:14

My direct ancestors are William Ernest Judd, and Agnes Margaret Haley.

So Sarah Gurton is not related to you - your relation was Cain at birth.

Do you know about freebmd?

Looking there would have saved you getting confused over the census records.

It's an excellent free site - worth bookmarking for future use
