On 1861census John Jago Born 1833, Butcher Bodmin Cornwall, wife Elizabeth b.1835, daug Amy 4 and Elly (Etty) 11 mths, living with them Jane Verran 66. This is Elizabeth's mother.
On 1871 census I find John is b.1838, still a Butcher in Bodmin but changed address to Honey St. There is no mention of his wife Elizabeth, but I cannot find a death, and he has loads more children.I feel this is still my John Jago as Jane Verran is still living with them.
Then on 1881 census I find John again b.1833 Butcher, Honey St. Bodmin , but now he has another wife called Elizabeth and she is 3 years older than him.He also still has 2 of his children living with him,Mary and John jnr.
Could anyone tell me if the first Elizabeth did die, if so when and when did he marry the second Elizabeth, and if it is not asking too much where did all the children come from and what happened to Amy and Elly(Etty).
Part of me thought they were 2 different families but Grandma Jane Verran is there all the time.
I know this is a long one but please help me as I think I am going mad. Thanking all of you in anticipation.

Thank you, everyone of you for replying so quick. Thanks to Choccy who sorted the 1861 family out, I read Verran instead of Winder and this makes more sense. They are not the same family, but why can I not find John Jago at 23yrs old on the 1861 census, I know his father was Jeremiah Jago and his mothers name was Sarah?

Dorothy

Dorothy Report 25 Jul 2010 10:33

Sorry Astra, could you explain did Elizabeth Draydon marry John Jago or did he marry Jane Saundry as his 2nd marriage?

IT IS Jane Verran on the original of the 1861 census. It has been mis-transcribed as Jane Winder.

Elizabeth Draydon looks like his second wife but you would need the marriage certificate to confirm.

This could be Hetty in 1871 with John' mother
