Marriages

Forthcoming Marriages
A marriage has been arranged and will take place in Madras at the end of November between Gordon V Cockburn,son of the late R.C.R. Cockburn,of Assam and Mrs. Cockburn of 20? Elvaston-place S.W. and Agnes,only daughter of the late Percival Sharpe and Mrs. Sharpe.of 125 Holland-road Kensington.

Maureen

From what I can see there are no children, they could of divorced as there seems to be another marriage for his wife a couple of years later.

The 1901 census is for Robert Cockburn who was on the 1911 with Gordon

Do you know who Gordon's parents were?

Edit - Sorted :-)

She must have been unlucky or liked wedding cake
