Just to update you all the marriage certificate arrived this afternoon. The details are:

John Johnson (27) Mariner from 5 Alton Street. Father is Lawrence Johnson (deceased), a rigger.

Mary Ann Curle (20) from 41 Goodly Street. Father is John Edward Curle, a mariner.

It would appear they got married on 13 July 1875 at the Church of St Thomas in Stepney.

Whilst the father’s name is Lawrence, which would fit with the information I already have, his surname is Johnson.  Maybe this wasn’t such a good line to follow for a relatively new comer to genealogy!

I can’t see any Lars or Lawrence Johnsons on the 1861-1881 censuses that look hopeful, so probably from here the Johnson line has to be tracked in Sweden.
It is however possible to follow the Curle line from the 1861-1891 censuses

1861 census RG9 288 folio 12     1 John’s Limehouse  Middlesex   

John Curle 41  Leystone, Essex, Head  Married Ship’s Carpenter
Sarah Curle 33  Poplar, Middlesex, Wife  Married
Sarah A Curle 12  Poplar, Middlesex, Daughter 
Edward Curle 10  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 
Walter J Curle 8  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 
Mary A Curle 6  Limehouse, Middlesex, Daughter 
Henry W Curle 1  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 

1871 census RG10 575 folio 20    5 Broomfield Street Bromley St Leonard  London 

Sarah Curle 43  Poplar, Middlesex, Head Married Husband at Sea
Sarah Curle 20  Poplar, Middlesex, Daughter 
Edward Curle 19  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 
Walter Curle 16  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 
James Curle 12  Limehouse, Middlesex, Son 
Henry Curle 10  Poplar, Middlesex, Son 
John Curle 6  Limehouse, Middlesex, Son 
Fredrick Curle 4  Limehouse, Middlesex, Son 
Jane Curle 2  Bromley, Middlesex, Daughter

1881 census RG11 499 folio 133 13A Ellesmere Street, Bromley St Leonard, London

Sarah Curle 53  Poplar, Middlesex, Head  Widow
Henry Curle 20  Poplar, Middlesex, Son  Labourer out of work
James Curle 17  Limehouse, Middlesex,  Son  Labourer out of work
John Curle 15  Limehouse, Middlesex, Son  Labourer out of work
Jane Curle 13  Bromley, Middlesex, Daughter  Servant

1891 census RG12 324 folio 32    9 Johnsons Building Bromley St Leonard  London   

Curle, Sarah 66 Milwall, London, Head  Widow Nurse
Curle, James 28 Limehouse, London, Son  Labourer General
Curle, John 26 Limehouse, London, Son Labourer General 
Shawn, Gertrude 18 Poplar, London, Visitor, Machinist

Deaths Jun 1879
Curle  John Edward  53  Poplar  1c 474

To prove Sarah’s death you really need to find either John and Sarah’s marriage (doesn’t seem to be on FreeBMD) or purchase one of the children’s birth certificates to see if her full name was sarah Hannah.

Deaths Jun 1901
Curle  Sarah Hannah  78  Poplar  1c 311

Thank you ever so much Velda.  I've been looking myself but I couldn't find anything.  If you were here now I'd give you a big hug!!

I have access to the birth marriage and death indexes at the local library so I'll take a look tomorrow morning.  I'll be sure to update you if I find the reference  Grin
