Shirley,

Still not sure that the 1863 birth is correct.

You say that her marriage cert does not name a father.

So two points - first the 1863 birth would have made her a lot older than suggested by her age on marriage cert - second if she knew her father why was the name & occupation not on her marriage cert.

Sorry to doubt it.

Shirley

The 1901 census for Thomas L Jones could well be the right one.

Have you considered the birth of Sarah A Castree in 1872 as this would match with the 1881 census information that Portland Rose has posted – also nearer to her age on marriage cert. This could also match with Mary Lewis (1901 census)and with the possible marriage in 1900 between Mary A Castree and John Lewis.

Just checking back on thread.

Portland Rose that 1881 census looks very promising - well spotted.

Looks like that is Thomas in 1901 with his grandparents because Sarah's mother is Mary Ann Castee.

Got another mad suggestion.

1901 census has Mary Lewis born as possible Much Dewchurch.

Much Dewchurch comes under Hereford registration district.

Have you dismissed this birth for Sarah

I FOUND ALL THOSE SYLVIE BUT ON WEDDING CERT SAYS HER MAIDEN NAME WAS CASTREE SHOULDN'T IT HAD MENTIONED LEWIS TOO, ONLY BIRTH FOR SARAH ANN CASTREE ON FREE BMD IS 1863, YET ON HER WEDDING CERT SHE IS 19 IN 1890 EDWARD JONES IS 32, YET 1863 BIRTH MAKES HER 26. AND ALSO THE DAD ON THE MARRIAGE IS BLANK, NO NAME AS THO ILLIGITIMATE.

THATS OK MAUREEN THAT YOU HAD TO LOG OFF HUN, I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU

sooooooooo

a) Glitter ddi not find the correct Thomas l Jones

b) his mother was married before and her maiden name was Lewis.



You say that his birth certificate says mother's maiden name was Castree



There is this marriage on freebmd.org.uk which could be Edward and Sarah's
