Name: Ivy May Mildred Gibbs
Age in 1911: 11
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1900

She married William H Doughty in 1932, and in 1939 is living in Harrow with her husband. Her DOB was 15 June 1899.
Died in Nottingham in 1951.

A possible reason for the first proposed marriage not going ahead -

this is Nellie in 1901:

Also at 91 Chippenham Road (but as a different household) are Nellie's parents John and Emily, with son William 24, and grand-daughter Ivy M, aged 1.

An Ancestry user has added the note, "Nellie is the mother of Ivy M Gibbs, living next door at 340 "
Incidentally, the note's inaccurate, as 340 is just the household number, and not part of the address.

Ivy's birth:

Perhaps the first marriage would have been a shotgun marriage, but then one or other of them backed out of it.
Presumably Joseph William admitted he was the father, as the birth was registered in his name, and not as an illegitimate birth.

Nellie married somebody else just over a year later - at a different church:

Nellie Kate Allen Gibbs
in the London, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1932
Name: Nellie Kate Allen Gibbs
Gender: Female
Marriage Age: 20
Record Type: Marriage
Birth Date: abt 1880
Marriage Date: 21 Jan 1900
Marriage Place: St John's Wood All Saints, Westminster, England
Father: John Gibbs, cab driver
Spouse: Frederick Ernest Rowland
Register Type: Parish Register

For our reference - location & date:

Nillie Kate Allen Gibbs
in the London, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1932
Name: Nillie Kate Allen Gibbs
Marriage Age: 19
Record Type: Marriage
Birth Date: abt 1879
Marriage Date: 25 Dec 1898
Marriage Place: St Augustine, Paddington, Westminster, England
Father: John Gibbs, cabman
Spouse: Joseph William Gibbs
Register Type: Parish Register

If you look at the image, there's a note at the side which says,

"These parties did not put in any appearance."
Signed by the officiating minister, Henry L Bleby.

The entry must have been written in the register before the proposed wedding, to be all ready for them to sign afterwards, but then had to be scored through when they didn't turn up.

The officiating minister sounds seriously fed up - he must have hung around waiting for them.

hi all
while looking for information on a friend's relative i came across an entry of marriage.
the marriage was between Joseph William Gibbs and Nellie Kate Allen Gibbs and was crossed through,
I have never seen this before, has anyone seen this and if so could you please explain it for me
thanks in advance

Just like to say thank you to everyone who posted info relating to Charles Goodden
THANK YOU
Chris

PM of thanks received today from Christopher.

You're welcome,Christopher!

Re Charles & Sophia's daughter Mary Ann (Mary in 1841 census; Marianne at baptism):

gravestone and lots of biography:

Her baptism, just for the record (not posting all the other siblings' baptisms, as I'm sure Christopher already has them):

I wasn't going to post this death of a Sophia Goodden, because the age wasn't right (too old, I thought), but in view of that 1851 posted by safc, perhaps it's the right death after all:

I think the father's name James on the alternative version of the possible baptism of Charles (posted by Maddie) is a mistranscription.

On the image it could be either James or "Saml". I think Samuel is correct.

Charles Goodden
in the Oxfordshire, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1930
Name: Charles Goodden [ bachelor ]
Gender: Male
Marriage or Bann Date: 5 Jun 1815
Marriage Place: Oxford, St Mary Magdalen, Oxfordshire, England
Parish as it Appears: St Mary Magdalen
Spouse: Sophia Ricketts [ spinster, a minor ]

Witnesses were R and Ann Tredwell


If this is the right couple, Sophia would have been c14, and Charles c19 - going by ages given in 1841, which I know are unlikely to be accurate..


In 1851 Charles says he's married, and widowed in 1861 census. Can't see Sophia's death 1841-61.

Just a suggestion - South Petherton is about 3 miles from Martock:
