Miles or Stiles ?
« on: Sunday 29 March 09 19:04 UTC (UK) »
I have been trying for ages to establish the maiden name of my gt gt gt grandmother...SUSANNAH STILES.
Obviously I have been able to source her date and place of birth via census reports... 1801, Feckenham, however I cannot find a record of her marriage to George Stiles (aka Styles). Their first child was born in 1839 so I am presuming they married a year or two prior to that. ....
From BMD I can see a marriage in Droitwich (right area) in Dec 1837... vol 18 - 321., however the groom is listed as George MILES.. !
So to my questions ...are mistakes made? ... and to check the details do I have to order a marriage certificate or visit the records office in person ??
Its been really frustrating, but I can't consider this to be a breakthrough until I can confirm the names so any help would be appreciated...

Hello,
do you have them in 1841?

There is this one you see:
1841 HO107; Piece 1200; Book: 2; Folio: 64; Page: 17
Near Droitwich Road Claines

George Miles 30 yrs ag lab not born in county
Susannah 25 yrs born in county

There is no child with them so I assume not yours. At the moment, I can only see a Susanna Stiles in 1861 census  Huh Added: found them in 1851

There is a marriage in 1840 Susannah Bryan and George Styles, Shipston on Stour but that doesn't seem like the right registration district.  Undecided
You would be able to confirm her name with a child's birth certificate.

Hi Jackie,
what a good find - I'd called myself to search all the options  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes and am so glad you have them.
Have you managed to find a marriage yet- other than the ones already found.
The only other thing I could think of was that one or other was already married- they were older people  Wink
The children's birth certificates would give Susannah's name though.
cheers
