Thats ok, i'll give all the info i can! there is no ocupation listed for Mary Theresa and the other witness was William Walton

sorry to keep coming back with extra questions but you did not have the marriage cert last time so were not sure of some things. Was Mary's occupation listed and who was the other witness please.

its just ribchester lancs and james address is dilworth, longridge.

what was Mary Theresa's address when she married please

incidentally that Ulverston census is the Stevenson/Cowell one - both john & Mary are registered with mmn = Cowell

more likely to have been Ellen's daughter Ellen age c16 in 188

Jan I think this is probably that Adam Stevenson whose death you found in Ulverston - as his daughter Mary is age 6 in 1881 (born c1875) it is unlikely he had a daughter Mary in 1867

could adam stevenson have been mary theresa's father but not married to her mother, and she just said he was dead at the time of her own marriage?

Sorry LancashireAnn, just really stuck and didnt want to confuse people with old info

the Stevenson - Mary Cowell marriage as in parish regs

marriage of Adam to Mary Cowell

Adam a 25 Engineer of Fox St father Daniel - contractor

Mary Cowell a 22 of Lower Pitt St father John (can't read occupation)

witnesses George Cowell & ? Dewhirst

difficult to reconcile Adam an engineer with Adam a pawnbroker!

I think this is the Adam you are looking at and so he had'nt died before she married

It would have been better Hannah to have updated one of your previous threads and updating the title - especially the last one above as it has 41 replies and the info people are finding for you now is the same. I remember doing quite a lot of work on this - even doing the lookups poss in parish records and there does not seem to be any new information in your post

it could be- why would mary be with another family when she is so young?

Could this be Adam in 1871?

Cowell Mary Preston 8e 543

Hi SomersetGirl. I did think that that could be her parents and i didn order the certificate- 1868 mary cowell and adam stevenson in preston. adam is noted as an engineer and his father is noted as Daniel Stevenson. I cant seem to find a mary and adam with a mary theresa that is the right age.
