I have found a death of a Thomas Stanley WATSON in 3Q 1890

She could have married either Joseph Knapp or Thomas Watson but - at the moment I cannot find a marriage between Arthur Bird and an Isabella

thats very interesting. She could have married in 1888 to KNAPP and been widowed and then remarried BIRD in 1891 Will look for a death of KNAPP 1888-1891 If that so no wonder I havent been able to find her.

Aha, Bugsbunny!! So Louisa was Louisa Chester...then I wonder if any of the Chester's in this household are her rellies...same birthplace! 1891 Census: Aston, Emma abt 1850 Catherington, Gloucestershire, England Servant Cheltenham Gloucestershire Burch, Mary abt 1870 Eccles, Lancashire, England Servant Cheltenham Gloucestershire Burge, Katharine V abt 1877 Slough, Buckinghamshire, England Daughter Cheltenham Gloucestershire Burge, Rolan L abt 1883 Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Son Cheltenham Gloucestershire Cass, Rebecka abt 1846 Burslem, Staffordshire, England Servant Cheltenham Gloucestershire Chester, Alfred Alexander abt 1858 Mexico Son Cheltenham Gloucestershire Chester, Isabel abt 1841 Mexico Daughter Cheltenham Gloucestershire Chester, Paula abt 1823 Mexico Head Cheltenham Gloucestershire Chester, Paula Julia abt 1860 Mexico Daughter Cheltenham Gloucestershire Collins, Emily abt 1867 Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Servant Cheltenham Gloucestershire Leah

I have found the marriage of Barnard Lucas and Louisa Chester in 1876 in London. I presume that the childrens father died in India and Isabella was born on the way home. Their mother Louisa was born in Mexico.I may be wrong but I dont think they would have come home from Mexico via the Bay of BengalI have looked for Isabellas marriage in Free BMD but havent found it

So Louisa Lucus is their mother. Isabella is most likely married by 1891?

LOL - sorry, I thought we were looking for a husband and wife here... Is there any connection between the children and the adult Isabella we have found?

Yes they are brother and sister/

Are they brother and sister??

I had found that one. Isabella was born 1873 and Henry 1870 - sorri I didnt make that clear brenda
