Oh look who got married in the same quarter ? Edward Charles Gratton 1902 Florence Kate Knowlden 1902 William Daniel Nichols 1902 Catharine Matilda Peters 1902 Now just wondering if Edward was short of a witness as the four names above share the same ref details Maureen

Hi Michelle, the marriage in Croyden in 1899 ; Florence does marry Walter (as Angela's find in 1901). I found Albert Isted and Esther together on the 1901. Where are the family in 1891 ?

Maureen You're right - A double wedding! Marriages Sep 1902 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gratton Edward Charles Croydon 2a 653 Knowlden Florence Kate Croydon 2a 653 Nichols William Daniel Croydon 2a 653 Peters Catharine Matilda Croydon 2a 653 Angela

Name: Florence Kate Knowlden Year of Registration: 1902 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep District: Croydon County: Greater London, Kent, Surrey Volume: 2a Page: 653 also beginning to think that Florence was possibly just a friend Maureen

Cant see her on other census apart from 1881, but her mother Catherine Lucy Gratton ( nee Mills) died 1887 Islington and her father Henry died 1892 Wandsworth. Might be worth chasing siblings to see if she's staying with any of them? Also wonder if she quickly remarried before your grandfathers' wedding? Will have a nose.
