Hi I'm trying to trace Mary Craven, she was born as Mary Hildred, 1893, registered in Boston, Lincs 7a 442
She married Walter Craven in 1916, registered Boston, Lincs 7a 1013.
I haven't found anything else as yet
Can anyone help?

There does not appear to be any Craven/Hildred births registered in England and Wales after 1916.

I'm not exactly sure, I'm guessing it was either 1885 or 1889 registered in Boston

Hopefully, someone with worldwide subs will check out the passenger lists for Mary Craven. :-)

It might be a good idea to purchase Mary and Walter's marriage certificate.

Good luck!!

Might this be Walter's death?

England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2005

Name: Walter Craven
Birth Date: abt 1889
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1966
Age at Death: 77
Registration district: Boston
Inferred County: Lincolnshire
Volume: 3b
Page: 8

Not seeing any immigration records

MarieCeleste Report 15 Feb 2012 21:34

There is more than one Mary Hildred born within a 5 year period in Lincs. Given that ages on census and certs are often out I'd definitely get that marriage cert to check details.

Kellys Directory 1930

Scrane End, Frieston, Boston
Craven Walter farmer
Hildred Frederick farmer
Hildred Yhomas farmer
William Jnr farmer
plus 8 other unconnected names all farmers

Same place he was in in 1911. Ancestry won't let me copy and paste.

Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL

Another thought


it was 1916, the middle of WW1


could he have died, and Mary re-married?
