Find Ancestors

I am looking for somebody kind to do a number of census searches for George Carter born (c 1861) possibly in or around Godalming Surrey. I have him on the 1911 census but struggled to find anything further. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Charlotte

Hi Charlotte,
Could you post the 1911 details please?

Is he the one with wife Charlotte Annie in Woolwich?

Maureen

He is indeed. Thank you Maureen. :)

OK, I'll just paste this here for reference.

I think you'll have to get one of the children's birth certs to check out Charlotte's maiden name. Or do you know it?

Maureen

Hi,
Charlotte's surname was Cook.

Thank you Maureen

Ack! I'm stumped.
You'd really think it'd be one of these match-ups:
Marriages Dec 1888 (>99%)
COOK Charlotte Annie Woolwich 1d 1850
GAZZARD Eli William Woolwich 1d 1850
McKENZIE Daniel Alexander Woolwich 1d 1850
TOSDEVIN Ellen Woolwich 1d 1850

But they don't seem to work,do they??

Sorry,
Maureen

Hi Maureen,

I already know that Charlotte Annie Cook married Eli Gazzard as William Henry (my great great grandfather) and Maud wern't actually George's children. I haven't yet been able to find her second marriage to Geore Carter. I am interested really in trying to trace George's routes. Or possibly Eli Gazzards.

You say William Henry and Maud were not Georges children but according to the 1911 posted earlier they had been married for 22 years.

and who is Maud?

Charlotte

Do you have the marriage cert for Charlotte Annie Cook and Eli William Gazzard and the birth certs for Charlotte's eldest children?

In 1891 Charlotte is living with George Carter and a detailed tree on Ancesty lists Eli William Gazzard(born 1870 Woolwich) as marrying Kate Elizabeth Venables in 1891 with their first child born in. 1892.
