There is this marriage, which is in Madeley, very near Onneley, but as yet there is no provable connection to your Martha.


Name: Martha Bailey
Gender: Female
Birth Date: abt 1862
Age: 27
Father's Name: Samuel Bailey
Spouse's Name: Thomas Evans
Spouse's Age: 25
Spouse's Father's Name: John Evans
Marriage Date: 11 Jun 1889
Marriage Place: Madeley, Staffordshire, England

Martha Bailey is the mother of Lucy Jane Bailey whose birth certificate I have-Lucy was born at Onneley Aug 1881. Martha is listed as her mother but there is no father's name given. Martha is described as a domestic servant and the 1881 Census shows her as a domestic servant at the farm of the Rawes family, Maer/Whitmore. Can find no certain trace of Martha before or after 1881.Thanks for the reply

Ancestry usually links people to the censuses on which they appear.......there is no link for any records pertaining to Martha's 1881 census entry

Her daughter's birth cert will record her daughter's birthplace....no-one else's

Who was her daughter?

When was she born?

Did Martha marry?

I am seeking the parents/siblings of Martha Bailey. Her daughter's birth cert states that she was born at Onneley but I can find no trace. I believe that in the 1881 Census, she is a domestic servant in the household of farmers Thomas and Margaret Rawes, Whitmore
