	I know, I am actually doing this for my two cousins, their father was my father's half brothers so we don't have the same grandparents but I am just trying to help them. I bought the birth certificate of their grandfather and then the marriage certificate which is what I am working on. The problem I have been having is this:- James Bertram Green Married Elizabeth Scrivens, I have the 1881 census and on it, it says Elizabeth Canterbury Kent age 19 (birth 1861) I also have the 1891 Census same place of birth age 29. Sent away for the marriage certificate - m 17.01.1880 age (21) Cannot find anything for Elizabeth born Canterbury, have had my friend looking in England but could not come up with anything either, it is confusing to be sure. I am having to go throug all of this just to be on the safe side, the witnesses do help I think and I am putting a lot on Margaret. To be honest now, I do not think Samuel has anything to do with it but I have to eliminate ones to get to the correct ones. I was thinking could you find anything on Margaret Scrivens born abt 1847 on 1861 census as she is missing from that one, I am assuming she is not married because of the marriage certificate.
