I have a William Robinson, son of William & Bridget, born c1832 in Holbeach Hurn, Lincolnshire. In 1861, he is with his parents. In 1871, I have him with wife Martha (b1834), son Robert E (b1857!!) and daughter Alice Ann (b1870). I can't find a marriage for William & Martha, nor can I find Martha or Robert in 1861. Can anyone help please?

have you got Roberts birth cert - i guess not - hence no idea of her maiden name. what does he say about his state as to marriage in 1861? where were Alice and Robert born please

Tracy is this him in 1861..

That's the one Georgina. Jess, both Alice and Robert were born in Holbeach.

so 1871~ i know you have save me keep asking silly Q's Alice Ann Robinson abt 1870 Holbeach, Norfolk, England Daughter Holbeach Lincolnshire Martha Robinson abt 1833 Whaplode Drove, Norfolk, England Wife Holbeach Lincolnshire Robert E Robinson abt 1857 Holbeach, Norfolk, England Son Holbeach Lincolnshire William Robinson abt 1832 Hurn, Norfolk, England Head Holbeach Lincolnshire

I should add, there's a Martha Lawson with son Robert in 1861, but she's still with her husband in 1871, so I hope it's not her lol

Hi Tracy As you know, I'm not subscribed to Ancestry, so can't check family. Who is Martha P Sarl in 1861? She's right age, and presumably born Whaplode Drove

There is also a Maria who fits the bill but no Robert... Maria Clayton abt 1833 Whaplode Drove, Lincolnshire, England Servant Holbeach Lincolnshire Georgina.

She's Martha P Earl, servant of Whaplode Drove, Lincs, living Gedney. Might be her. But no sign of Robert. ooooh.... 1891 Robert Earl abt 1857 Holbeck, Lincolnshire, England Head Sutton St Mary Lincolnshire 1901 Robert Earl abt 1857 Holbeck, Lincolnshire, England Servant Sutton Bridge Lincolnshire

Runcorn!! No wonder I couldn't fnd it. What on earth were they doing there? lol

Tracy I am not sure it's your William Robinson but it's the only one with a Martha Earl. They seem a long way from home? Georgina.

At least I know they definitely did marry... ROBINSON William EARL Martha Great Budworth, St Mary Cheshire Central There is another Martha Earl in Cheshire in 1861, but I can't find the same one as a Robinson. Still can't find Robert anywhere though lol

I think you are going to have to send for Alice's birth certificate to be sure.. Births Jun 1870 Robinson Alice Ann Holbeach 7a 379 Georgina.

Woo, have you looked on Familysearch? Martha is there, and Robert - in 1862!
