1885 Marriage cert - parents names included?
« on: Friday 14 August 09 17:26 UTC (UK) »

Hello all
My great grandfather William Alexander Steel was born 1863 in Mile End.
In 1885 he married Harriet Jackson in Bethnal Green.
If I order the marriage cert will it show the parents names?
I am struggling to identify him in the 1871 and 1881 censuses - there are a couple of possibilities but dont know which would be right as none of them give Mile End as his place of birth - instead, other parishes which I believe are nearby but I dont know enough about London geography to make an educated guess.
Thanks for any advice

The marriage cert MAY show his father's name & occupation (or it may be omitted).

List the census(es) and maybe we could help out with those parishes.

Father, age, occupation, birthplace
mother age, occupation, birthplace
Child #1 age, occupation, birthplace
Child #2 age, occupation, birthplace
& so on.

& then the same for him 1891 on Also trace the 1871/1881 parents to 1891

Hi

1901 census

RG13 334 folio 100
99 Duckett Street Mile End Old Town
William A Steel 37 Head Married Carman Houndsditch London
Harriett Steel 34 Married Wife Stepney 
Harriett R Steel 12 Daughter  Stepney
Maud E Steel 11 Daughter  Stepney
Emma E Steel 8 Daughter Stepney

Since Houndsditch is in the square mile of the city, this birth registration (the only one for a William Alexander) would be compatible. East London registration district was the east section of the city.


Births Sep 1863 
STEEL  William Alexander    E London  1c 2

Hi

They seem to be transcribed in the surname Red. On the index I use they were Reel. The census enumerator has not written the surname clearly.

That's amazing, Valda! Thanks - what a huge amount of progress you've made for me!
How  fascinating - my gg gran was married 3 times! And my gg grandfather was a soldier from Ireland ....  that gives me lots more to research! Thanks again for your generous assistance.
