The marriage cert is definitely needed for this one.

Christine

Hmmm it's possible.

Born 1880 and married in 1900 doesn't give much leeway tho?

Need to find her birth, i do wonder if she was hiding from something?


T x

I think so. Can't seem to find anybody that fits in Abingdon.

I wonder if she was married before?

Ozi

The 1901 census has def got the same wife, she just calls herself simply Jane.

The Lewisham marriage of 1900 looks good for jane Thams... i wonder if she liked being creative?

Tracey, on 1911, where does it say Mary Jane was born?

Births Sep 1912
Franks Arthur E T Tams Lewisham 1d 2150

Tams is the mother's maiden name.

???
Births Mar 1881
TAMS Florence Wakefield 9c 41

Ok, something weird here, This Florence's father William Harry is an Oak fencer in 1911....!

They are living at 18 Knowles Hill Cresent

Does the mother just like changing her name, or are we looking at more than one wife??

Hmmmm...

Coincidence?

Thams Jane Lewisham 1d 1963

Christine

Do you know when and where William was born? Did they have any children? If so, what were their names?

There is this marriage but christian names of wife is not right

Hi,

Trying to find the maiden name of a lady in my tree. She was married to William Harry Franks in June 1900. Her married name was Mary Jane Franks.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks very much,
