If you have found eliza's birth in malta, does it give a surname to narrow down the marriager search?

Regards Linda:)

The 1881Henry's occupation matches with the Henry living with Eliza in 1891 - I can read it now i know what I'm looking at! So he must have married before, as must Eliza.

im trying to fit all the names in to place, I think Thomas and Mary J are not Elizas and they both had kids before they married. Not sure what Thomas's occupation was. Think this one might take me a while to work out ! Thanks again

Definitly looks like Eliza has married before not sure if in 1881 that she is living with her brother or her sister in law living with them.

Lindsey, Mary and Thomas born Durham the rest in Cornwall, including Herbert. Seems a bit odd with the birth years!! Might have been mixed up when recorded.
Have you looked for Cornwall marriages?
Also, do you happen to have an occupation for Henry? Can't make out the 1891 one, but if it is the same might be able to read it.

I think i need to buy more credit, had loads of census on my other computer and lost the lot. Janet does it say were Herbert and Mary were born, this seems to be the right family.

This looks like the family in Grevison 1871;


The 1871 Census

1871 England Census

Age: 26
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1845
