Where did they marry?
« on: Thursday 08 May 08 20:47 BST (UK) »

One of my stumbling blocks with my Chambers family is an early marriage, John Chambers to Ann unknown.

The census doesn't really help much either.

1841 shows the following;

John Chambers 35 
Ann Chambers 30 
William Chambers 15 
Eliza Chambers 7 
Joseph Chambers 5 
Louisa Chambers 3 

Residence is St Swithins, all are recorded as born in county.

1851 is a bit more complicated.

John and some of the children, at the workhouse where John was working, children are recorded as visitors. The age jumps up a lot but this is the correct family group, John recorded as born Tattershall (transcribed as Tattenshall) all children are born Lincoln.

George Chambers 9 
Henry Chambers 19 
John Chambers 63 
Louisa Chambers 11 

Ann and remaining children, Ann gives pob as Wragby, again children are all Lincoln. Residence is St Martin.

Ann Chambers 50 
Charlotte Chambers 3 
Eliza Chambers 17 
Joseph Chambers 14 
William Chambers 28 

1861, Ann now recorded as widow, ages are those transcribed from Ancestry index and don't match the image. Residence is St Michael.

Ann Chambers 43  (image looks like 63)
Charlotte Chambers 11 
George Chambers 19 
Luisa Chambers 23 
William Chambers 38  (now recorded as born Minting)


None of the post 1837 kids were registered so birth certs aren't an option for finding maiden name for Ann.

Any suggestions as to where they may have married? Wragby? Tattershall? Minting? Lincoln?

Thanks Geoff

It's been a while since i looked at this family group, now looking at the dates there is quite a gap  (approx 10 years) from William to the next child Eliza.

The name and date combinations throw up lots of possible census matches in later years and it has been a real nightmare to try and construct the "other" Chambers families.

George (1844) is my grt grandfather and the '91 and 1901 for his family group (he commited suicide just before the 1901) are so badly mistranscribed you wouldn't believe the entries.

Just caught the additional post there Geoff, thanks for that.

Food for thought and worth knowing for future reference.........one day i can use all this to either add or discount the growing band of Chambers names i have.

Hi

I was also thinking the Minting POB for WIlliam seemed significant.
As well as in 1861 - William was also recorded as born Minting in 1851, and then later in 1871 (where it's spelled as Minton)

There seemed to be a Henry born in abt 1832 (between WIlliam and Eliza) according to the age of the son Henry in the 1851 Census?  But that still left that 'telling' gap between William and Henry. Wonder where  was Henry in 1841.....................?

Cheers
