Well that explains it. ;)

Allowing us to search for other births to the couple (using mother's surname):

Births Dec 1914
CHURCHER Walter A (Johnson) Wandsworth 1d 1021

Marriages Sep 1937
Churcher Walter A Jenkins Battersea 1d 1111
Jenkins Lilian D M Churcher Battersea 1d 1111


Christopher, you can search at FreeBMD

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

for births to the two couples -- Churcher-Snow and Churcher-Jenkins. We could do the search but couldn't post the results here anyway as that is getting into the realm of living people.

It looks like they did'nt rush to get married although they say they had been married 20 years

Marriages Sep 1912 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Churcher Arthur H Johnson Wandsworth 1d 1575

Johnson Ellen Churcher Wandsworth 1d 1575

Must be the right family

Marriages Mar 1924 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Churcher George H Snow Wandsworth 1d 489
Snow Jane Churcher Wandsworth 1d 489

well at least he's asked nicely which is quite refreshing after all the extremely rude requests that have littered these boards today

Oh well, so much for helping by explaining, again.

The 1881 census is also free, both at

http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=census/search_census.asp

and at

Christopher, for future ref, you've realized now that replying to years-old threads on the "Churcher" surname board is probably fruitless? (clicking on the poster's name and sending a private message *might* reach them, as in that case an email notification will be sent -- but most people will have changed email addresses)

You're reading the Churcher "surname board". All these posts are seen on the general Trying to Find board, which is now filled up on page 1 with very old Churcher threads. At the top of the surname board you're reading you see a link to the complete Trying to Find board. This is it; please click to see where all posts appear, and where we other members see your post:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.asp?wci=board&act=clear&bk=2

Now. Why not find the exact quarter/year George Churcher's birth was registered?

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

Have you tried searching the 1911 census to get names/ages of siblings?

http://www.1911census.co.uk/search/tnaform.aspx

Search for
surname CHURCHER
living with
given names ARTHUR NELLIE
surname CHURCHER

(If you're sure Nellie is her proper name -- you can search for their marriage at FreeBMD too.)
