I had a look at the 1901 census and there are 60 with my married name ages ranging from 5 months to 74 years........ I was so surprised. None with my maiden name but it was an unusal one, married name is a more common one. May have a look at the 1891 next time. Love and Peace Marianne.x |

well I never!! There is a Glory as head in 1901 and wife Eliza. First time I heard of a male called Glory Unless they were the first official gay couple on the census. |

:-( No I'm not on any census but on ancestry there is one other person with the same name as me but she died when she was 40 in 1989 - I've seen her on here too. Penny |
