Spouse Name: John Smith
Record Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 04 Apr 1836
Parish: St Marylebone

You can look at the image of the actual page from the Parish Register, and see their signatures (or mark).


Unfortunately, the marriage was before the era when occupations and addresses, and fathers' names and occupations, were on the register.

Here we go, 1841:

John Smith 35 -- occupation: Smith -- not born in County
Elizabeth Smith 25 -- born in Ireland
Elizabeth Smith 4

Eliz Jr died in childhood, perhaps, or in service by 1851.

Not found them in 1841 though, but still trying :)

Rambling Rose,
This one makes a lot of sense ,where on earth did you get it from?
The eldest daughterJane was Born 1837 and the icing on the cake is she was born in Marylebone.
I can't thank you enough.

One wonders about these submitted records. How did 4 April 1836 become 3 Nov. 1835?

just throwing this in while i read

marriage date came from I.G.I Thankyou

Got one too -- Patricia, please use the "Add your reply" box down at the bottom so we're not shuffling around to our inboxes, and to save you labour. ;)

Now can you say where the marriage info came from -- the submitted record Adeline referred to? (I have no idea why I can't acess the IGI on line, and it is peeving me.)

Basically, would you just give *all* the info you have, as the guidance when you post recommends? What her children's names and birth years are, where they are living in which census, what her husband's date and place of birth are, etc. If we don't have the info you have to start with, we're going nowhere.

PM received from Patricia..........

Her name is Elizabeth Hollas but i sent for one of the childrens Birth certificate and it had Elizabeth hollis.
Thankyou

She's your direct ancestor so what's the name of the child that you descend from?

And I can't see an Elizabeth Smith born c1814 in Ireland/Dublin with husband John in the 1841/1851/1861 censuses ...

A good guessing game is always fun!

Meanwhile, if her surname isn't actually known, and if she had children in England and their births were registered, the birth certficate will give it.

The record doesn't show up on London marriages on Ancestry.

Is the IGI record "submitted"? If so, it's likely some boob who just went by a census location and didn't worry about accuracy, just collecting ancestors for posthumous baptism or other purposes.

I haven't been able to get familysearch.org to load for me for several days, so I can't check, unfortunately!

Where do you have the marriage record info from?

Also, would you give you grandmother's name maybe? Nobody else can search for anything without it.

........and her name is ?

Trying to find where my 3xGrandmother was born.
I have an I.G.I record which says it was about 1814 St Georges hanover Square London.
But the census say she was born in Dublin Ireland..
She was married to John Smith 03/11/1835 St Georges Hanover Square London.
I cannot seem to move on and find her parents.
Will be so pleased if someone knows something.
Thanks to your help I have now established that Elizabeth Hollis was born 1813 in Dublin in Ireland ,does anyone know how I can look up this birth in Irish records,love to know who her parents were,Thankyou very much.
