Flushed with yesterdays successes, today I have turned my attention to a different branch of the family but am having difficulty finding a marriage for George.
My starting point is :-

Births Sep 1878
EDWARDS Harriet Guisbro'
9d 495


1881 Census
Household Gender Age Birthplace
head George Edwards
M 31 York, Yorkshire, England
wife Ann Edwards
F 36 Loftus, Yorkshire, England
daughter Mary Edwards
F 4 Loftus, Yorkshire, England
daughter Harriet Edwards
F 2 Loftus, Yorkshire, England
son George Edwards
M 0 Loftus, Yorkshire, England
boarder Joseph Ainsley
M 19 Guisbro, Yorkshire

Births Mar 1850
Edwards George York
23 666

Does anybody have sharper eyesight or a better way in to finding George and Ann getting married please?

Many thanks
Frances

Hi Shirley I have investigated FreeBMD but found no marriage for North Riding of Yorkshire between 1870 - 1877 but going further afield picking the correct marriage would be most debatable.

The birth certificate is probably the only way forward so I shall have to pass this request onto my neighbout to whom the family belongs - I am just doing the research for her benefit and my own fun!
