Title: 1861 Look Up - John & Emma Knowles
Post by: rutht22000 on Saturday 25 June 11 14:21 BST (UK)
John and Emma (nee Wood) married in 1860, marriage registered in Shrewsbury.

I've got them everywhere else except the 1861 census.

John was born 1839 in Overton, Flintshire and Emma in Bridgnorth in around 1843 .  I doubt there were any children with them.  Their eldest known child, Mary Elizabeth born was 1865 in Wrexham so they could be on either the England or Wales 1861 if they went to Wrexham before Mary Elizabeth's birth.

Thanks
Ruth

Thanks Heywood!   :)

 its the right lot, despite the birth places as Emma did have a sister Mary who married a Thomas Pierce (or Pearce as he occasionally liked to be known  ::))

(now I need to have words with myself for not finding them as they weren't misspelt or anything..!)
