David, please don't take offence, but why were we looking for Charles's marriage if you already have the certificate?

You can't always take the age at marriage as being true. People often lied. On my grandparents marriage certificate it says he is 39 (he was 42) and it says she was 28 (she was 23). Little lies to make the 19 year age gap appear smaller.

There are too many Charles W. Evans deaths to be sure which is the right one without some idea of when and where he might have died.

Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun

Volume: 2b

Found POSSIBLE marriages for parents but I must stress the POSSIBLE

Marriages Surname: evans First name(s): charles
Start date: Mar 1849 End date: Dec 1853 Spouse's first name(s): susan
County: Middlesex


Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Mar 1849 (>99%)
Evans Charles Bethnal Green 2 35 Scan available - click to view
Marriages Jun 1849 (>99%)
Evans Charles Kensington 3 336 Scan available - click to view


The Bethnal Green one is in the right area but does not fit in that well with age of eldest child - unless a couple of children died young?

44 was a bit late to have first child............can you check the dates,please.

As you know his wife's name, you should have no difficulty in finding the marriage......you can enter both names on freebmd...............JUST the names.......no other info, and click 'find'

This is the marriage:-

Name: Charles Evans
Year of Registration: 1874
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Stepney (To 1921)
County: London, Middlesex
Volume: 1c
Page: 1017

Elizabeth Finnis is also on the page.

Are you sure the eldest child wasn't born until 1897? That seems a long time after the marriage.
