If Julia has posted the correct family in 1881, and I have posted the correct marriage in 1874, then 'Henery' from 1881 census is born in 1869 which is before the marriage.
Who are you tracking?
Have you got George and Mary's marriage certificate for their Fathers' names so we would know if incorrect families have been found?
Thanks

OMG.... This is the first time I have used this site, and this way of getting help, To say I am shocked that so many people have donated their time for me is an understatement.....I have ordered George Miller's Birth cert. but until it comes through I still cannot seem to find his fathers name. I have the birth cert. of Charles worsip Miller, born, oct 1885, Sudbourne, my Great Grandfather, and his father is stated as George miller and mother Mary ann miller, nee Fisher. ??? I think that Nickydownsouth's addition stating when mary was a widow is correct as 'rumour' passed down through the family say's that George was killed by a Bull on the farm. how can i find this out? but where is charles, could george jnr have maried a mary ann too? Thank you for your help!! Mark...

Nickydownsouth Report 31 Dec 2010 12:37

From the information Evie posted stating George Miller born c1841 died in 1921 then this is probably the death reg. for him. The certificate would confirm his cause of death.

Deaths Sep 1921 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miller George 79 Plomesgate 4a 910

Presuming these postings all turn out to be the correct family, then yes it looks as though both Georges married a Mary.

Hopefully when you get George born c 1841 cert. it will confirm the findings.

Thank you Nicky, I was getting a bit confused with all the georges in the family, makes it more fun as they married mary's too.How do I find out about my family before the census? I appreciate your help, as I said this is all new to me..... Mark.

Hi Mark, you need to search parish registers for earlier info....here's a couple of ideas for you.....


Google familysearch.org - they have many old parish records.

Also, try on-line parish clerks sites as there may be one local to the area you are researching.

Don't forget to put the names you are researching into the Search Trees box above to see if anyone else on this site has them in their tree. Ifyou find a connection, you can contact the tree owner. Cx

Just want to add that although there is a good chance that the information we have all given you is the correct family, its always best to back up your information with certificates.

If you know Charles Worsip Miller is your great grandfather its best to have his birth cert to confirm parents names and mothers maiden name, also then the parents marriage as that will confirm their details and work back that way.

I always try to get birth and marriage certs for all my direct line, grandparents, great grandparents, great great grandparents etc...


With out that information it is all too easy to trace back on the wrong family, especially with a more common name like Miller.

Nickydownsouth, Are you saying I'm 'Common'.......Only joking!! You are right, I have Charles Worship Miller's Birth Certificate, and have just had a long conversation with my Auntie Phyllis, Charles's Daughter. Although she has just had her 90th birthday, she has filled in a few gaps for me. I found out tha Hannah Miller, who turned up in the 1901 census, was actually found on the doorstep by Charles's mother Mary, left by a young girl who ran away to london, I can see this is going to be interesting !!! Thank You!!!
