Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 846 Send Message	Thomas Steen is showing in the 1891 Census for Wrexham Denbighshire as married to a Martha given as born in Wrexham in c 1868 and with a daughter Mary J given as born in Wrexham and five months old.RG12/4618/78/17. I have searched seeming the whole country but I'm unable to find a marriage for a Thomas Steen to a Martha anywhere prior to 1891. Regards William Russell Jones.

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 846 Send Message	Thanks,whilst I'm prepared to accept that they may have married later,this does not explain the birth as named Mary J Steen as you will find in the Oct/Nov/Dec quarter of 1890 in the Wrexham District. Regards William Russell Jones.

Have a look at the narrative for Father's Name on this link: http://www.dixons.clara.co.uk/Certificates/births.htm Best way to settle it is to buy the birth certificate.

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 846 Send Message	Thanks,the Steen/Martha Jones 1892 marriage could well be the one yet!I've just contacted someone on Ancestry who has a very interesting Martha Jones born in Wrexham in 1869 who is with her parents in 1881 but not afterwards. Regards William Russell Jones.

	A registrar will write down anything he is told. My husband has always had his father's surname - and always thought his parents were married, It wasn't until after they had both died that we found out his father had married in the 1920's, the marriage broke up and because divorce was almost impossible to get that hubby's parents just lived as man and wife. There is nothing on hubby and his brother's birth certificates that would make you think that the parents weren't married - but they weren't. Kath. x
