Just to confirm, Birth Certificate received today for John Wilson shows mother's maiden name as Louisa Edwards.

Thanks to all for your help.

The Wilson / Edwards marriage looks very promising. I ordered a John Wilson birth cert this morning but am getting GRO to search as there are a few Wilsons in the vicinity - estimated date of despatch is mid October so now I have to wait - will confirm the mother maiden name when it arrives.

Thanks for the input

Hi

MarieCeleste

That is most likely them then - Charles Wilson to Louisa Edwards (another dull and common name to probably research), thank you.

PollyPoppet

I didn't think to look for Calloway on the Census to eliminate them - thank you.

I notice on the 1901 that your Charles is a tin plate worker, so is this one:

London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921
Name: Charles Wilson, bachelor. Tin plate worker of 17 Harrold Street
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1860
Age: 22
Spouse Name: Louisa Caroline Edwards, spinster of 19 Harrold Street
Spouse Age: 24
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 29 Oct 1882
Parish: Bethnal Green St Jude
Borough: Tower Hamlets
Father Name: John Wilson - Carpenter
Spouse Father Name: John Edwards - Carpenter
Register Type: Parish Register

Witnesses: William Agonbar and Sarah Agonbar

Obviously you'll want the child's birth cert.

Drat - not her then, need to find another Louisa!

Thank you for that MarieCeleste

PS - Not worried about her birth now - will mark as answered and go and look for another Louisa

EDIT - not marked as answered as waiting for a birth cert to confirm mother's maiden name - quite likely Edwards

I have found this lady marrying in Q1 1883, as follows and would like to establish whether she married Charles Wilson:

Civil registration event: Marriage

Name:DULIEU, Louisa
Registration district: [?]Bethnal Green
County:London
Year of registration:1883
Quarter of registration:Jan-Feb-Mar
Spouse's last nameNot available before 1912
Volume no: [?]1C
Page no: [?]421
 MarriageFinder™: [?]  Louisa Dulieu married one of the following people
WILSON, Charles
CALLOWAY, Ernest
DUNCOMBE, Phoebe Emily

So far I am unable to find a corresponding birth for a Louisa Dulieu and have checked surname Dulieu to first name Louisa marriages - in case she was married (briefly) before, nothing appropriate.

My information is gleaned from Census Records as on the 1901 a Louisa is shown (b 1859 Mile End Old Town) with husband Charles Wilson (b 1860) and two children John and Louisa. The 1911 shows Charles and Louisa married 28 years (indicating the 1883 marriage). I have ordered a birth cert from GRO to check the maiden name of the mother Louisa on the 1901 and 1911.

I have found 7 trees on GR with a Louisa Dulieu all showing as born in 1861 which I am going to check but if the year is correct on their trees why can't I find a birth?

Any help gratefully received, thank you
