Thank you all - I have the details of the 1851, 1861 and 1881 census. and I have Robert's baptism dates. Perhaps buying a birth cert of one of the children is the only way I shall find Jane's surname. I have been corresponding with a 'cousin' found on this site but although we seem to have several ancestors in common I am now finding certain relatives don't share the same dob, for instance my George Weaver's dob is definitley 1851 yet his George was born in 1841. I think that Jane maybe Robert's 1st or 2nd wife ?

Thank you everyone for your help - yes, the details of William refer to my ancestor. So, Robert's first wife was Dorothy?

RutlandBelle

RutlandBelle Report 30 Aug 2010 19:09

well it looks like she could be, but only birth or marraige certs will confirm. Sometimes you just have to buy them if you want accuracy. I have dozens as I am sure many people on here will have.

You say you already have Roberts baptism date .......(which was 1805)........ and yet you posted his DOB as 1806.
