Florence Annie Bryant was born around 1889 in Crewe, Cheshire her parents were William John Bryant born around 1862 in Hayle Cornwall her mother was called Jane, would like to find their marriage.

Florence married Thomas Taylor in St Mary's Birkenhead on 19th July 1914. Don't know anything about Thomas other than his father was called Isaac.

Anything I can find out about these people would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Shirley, have checked the census for 1891 and 1901 also looked on familysearch.org and Cheshire Bmd can't see her might be missing something though.

Patchem, Again I must apologise she was born in Birkenhead and Christened there on 17th March 1889 at St Peter's Birkenhead. I just lifted the wrong place from my notes.

Thanks, again I have the 1891 census and it seems that the Mary Mente should be Mary Nute who is a cousin. Elizabeth H Bryant disappears on the 1901 Census possible death between 1891 and 1901

patchem,

Thanks for record I'm not sure of how to get the best out of the English records, I have been using the Scottish ones to research my own side. Does that look like William's wife was Jane Bellis?
