Trying to find the parents of Emily Iles born approx 1874 Bedminster ( I think) Bristol. She married Francis Charles Morton B. approx 1873. They married in Bedminster 1895 (5c 1214). Also cannot find Francis Charles Morton on any census. In 1907 they lived at 10 Twinnell Rd, Stapleton, Bristol.

If all else fails, the marriage cert will have her father's details..........if known.

Hi Reggie,
Thanks for your very helpful info on Emily Iles.
I have been trying to trace this family, knew they had a daughter and so obtained a birth cert and found she was married to Francis Charles Morton.
Thanks again.

Hi Reggie,
My father died a couple of weeks ago and with my husband have been away for a week so have just caught up with your postings.
Thanks very much, your info is very helpful in my research. I actually did some checks on the info you gave earlier on -while away.
Thanks again Patricia

Hi Reg,
Thank you for your condolences. My father was 93 and was born at lakeside Newby Bridge, I had managed to go back 7 generations in my Fathers family in the Lake Dstrict and he had been so interested. (The Iles/Morton is my husband side). He went into Residential care six months ago but his passing was very sudden, I had been with him only three hours before. I was pleased he had enjoyed the family research and have had some lovely e-mails from distant relatives.
Regards
Patricia

Newby Bridge is very familiar to me........or rather, it was, in my youth.

Our family outings at weekends were very often to the Lake District, and our route alomst always took us via NB.

Happy memories...........
