Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 36 Send Message	Hello i'am trying to find the marriage between James Revell born 1822 and Mary Ann Mickleburgh born 1825 those are the names on my G Gma's birth certificate her name was Florence May Eliza or Elizabeth Revell. The first child was born 1850/51 I have looked on the Freereg BMD site but no luck so if anyone can help it will be much appreciated, the children were all born in the Norfolk, Depwade area. Regards Peter

	So are you saying that Mary Ann gave birth at the age of 52?? Could it be possible that this is a second marriage and was later than thought? Sam x

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 3,927 Send Message	That is a big age difference as Sam said Perhaps he married again. Or could she be the grandaughter of James and Mary Ann

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 3,927 Send Message	Hi Peter so you don't think the 1881 census I posted is any good? Mary is shown as a widow. If James married again what year and to who - this may explain the late birth

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 2,262 Send Message	I think the Marriage that Sam found might be worth checking: Marriages Dec 1857 Burroughs James Revell Guiltcross 4b 646 Mickleboro Mary Ann Guiltcross 4b 646 Guiltcross is in Norfolk Helen x

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 2,262 Send Message	I Still think this is the right family, and that the marriage Sam gave was correct: Marriages Dec 1857 Burroughs James Revell Guiltcross (Norfolk) 4b 646 Mickleboro Mary Ann Guiltcross (Norfolk) 4b 646 - it seems they use Revell as their middle names. Here they are (with Eliza) on the 1881 census (spelt Burrows): Civil parish: Bunwell County/Island: Norfolk Country: England Registration district: Depwade Sub-registration district: Forncett ED, institution, or vessel: 10 James R. Burrows 48 Mary A.R. Burrows 40 William B. Burrows 18 Adelaide R. Burrows 14 Charles R. Burrows 9 Rosa R. Burrows 6 Eliza R. Burrows 4 >>Civil parish Bunwell, Registration District Depwade- think this is definately worth checking further. Helen x
