I don't understand why you can't get the image up.

Christine

Tried that and it still comes up with nothing on Emily!! Must be cos your not in England!!

Mel, I searched the full ones, just putting in surname Wordley, Year and Qtr.

Marriage Indexes 1837 – 1983

Christine

Oh Chirstine you clever girl!! So why did'nt it come up for me????

I have checked the full indexes on Ancestry for the Spellward/Wordley marriage and it is Emily Wordley.

How have you got back to these names. Do you have certificates naming Edward and Emily?

Christine

If his wife was Rose on the 1911 census then the marriage put up earlier could have been right for the first marriage as there is also a Rose on that one.

Henry Lambert 1906 Woolwich Greater London, Kent, London

>>> Edward S A Spellward 1906 Woolwich Greater London, Kent, London


The later marriage found of an Edwin E with spouses name Wordley may well be the one you are looking for. The first name does not appear on the page of names and I have tried looking up Wordley with the ref number but nothing comes up.

Perhaps his second name was Edward?? and he used that.

If you applied for this marriage you could state you only want it if the spouse is Emily Wordley.

You need one of the children's birth certs to find the correct names.

This Edward must've married Rose Barber, not Emily Golson. (Jane, 2nd post on thread)

Just noticed the marriage posted by Mel.

There is this death on Free BMD but it would make him born in c1871 and of course it is Edwin not Edward.

Have you searched all the individual qtrs on for his death as they are only transcribed up to about 1930 on Free BMD.

There appears to have been a child born in 1928. These are the ones with mmn given after 1912.
