Hi Please can anyone help me in helping a cousin of mine. She would like to know about: Mary Ann Hewer (baptised 18th Sept 1859 at Poulton, Whiltshire). her husband was John Patrick Murray. Please has anyone got or can search any details about JPM because I have searched everywhere I can think of but I cannot find a marriage for these two and yet, all the birth certificates for their six children have the father's name as John Murray? Please can anyone help thank you Craig Rowberry

Hi all I do not know anything about this perason I am afraid but I would think that they would have married in the place where their 1st child was born: Minnie Kate Murray born b.1884 in Cowley I have not got them in any census only the 1901 which Reggie has given 2 me now

Jess Bow Bag

Jess Bow Bag Report 2 Mar 2006 18:10

what is the address on Minnies birth cert please actually - not convinced we have the right family here. what are the names of the 6 children that you started off with

Craig

Craig Report 2 Mar 2006 18:13

John Murray b. 1885 in Selly Oak Minnie Kate Murray b.1884 in Cowley Elizabeth Murray b.1887 in Union Workhouse Rebecca Kate Murray b.1890 in 108 Gloucester Joseph Harold Murray b.1893 in 26 Cromwell Albina Ellen Murray b. 1896 in South Cerney

The children's birthplaces on 1901 could be inaccurate...........there is a nephew with the surname Hewer, which is apparently the maiden surname of Mrs Murray, so that would seem to indicate that it's the correct family Reg

Craig You still haven't said where you have actually looked in your quest for this marriage.. Until you tell us that, we can't offer any constructive help Reg

Craig Report 2 Mar 2006 23:45

Well I do not know anything as this is for a cousin of mine so I have only had this information tonight. But I would say that the marriage would have been around1880's or a little before that. I would have 3 guesses in where they got married: 1) in Monmouthshire, Wales 2) in Cowley I think it is in Oxford 3) Poulton, Wiltshire Thank you any way for all your help Craig
