I am wondering if they actually married at all or maybe at a later date. 1901 census says Alice Ann Lewis was born in Aberdare. This a mystery but thanks for checking

Yes, I see that Alice's daughter Mary George was born in Ferndale 1898, Maybe the family broke up or died.
there are no records of death I may have to go to local cemeteries to find that info

Dianne

Dianne Report 2 May 2010 15:20

Yes I think that may be the one ! Thanks

FannyByGaslight Report 2 May 2010 15:21

Wonder if he and Alice just went seperate ways?

Mike * Report 2 May 2010 15:24

Could this be John Henry's death ?

Deaths Mar 1908 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GEORGE John Henry - 28 - Cardiff 11a 307

Dianne Report 2 May 2010 15:24

Yes, Sarah Jane George was my Grandmother. This evidence is correct. One of the wtnesses at Sarah's wedding was named Holloway, and Fairfield Cottages is where my grandparents lived when they first got married. so it all fits together. It looks like my G/grandparents were not married? Thank you

Dianne

Dianne Report 2 May 2010 15:29

This could be her, she would have been 22 at that time and as there are no further records it fits. Thanks again

FannyByGaslight Report 2 May 2010 15:32

I am unable to find a marriage ,so it would seem you are right and they didnt marry legally for some reason.
