Many thanks again Mo , I agree with Claire it does look good for Ellen's marriage, I have applied for the death certificate for mother Ellen at Ulverston because I think that looks good, so here goes in for penny in for a few pounds I will apply for the marriage certificate also.   :) :)

In the Manchester Times dated 25th February, 1898 under "Missing Friends"

GRIFFITHS - Edward Griffiths, when last heard of was living in Barrow in Furness.  The inquirer is his niece Ellen Griffiths.

I saw that Ellen said her father was deceased when she married so perhaps none of the family knew where he went to. 

Hi Mo
This was a good find , you also mention Ellen put her father was deceased when she married, I have been looking for her marriage, did she marry in Blackpool please.

I am sure you are correct about this one, I have searched for hours trying to find a death for Ellen but never thought about being registered in Cumbria, going to send for that certificate then I will know, so many thanks.
Edwards sister would be a good choice to look after Ellen, not having any children of her apart from one that died when a few months old.

I would like to thank you all and say how much I appreciate all your help, sorry for not replying before now but my friend was getting confirmed after 79 years! They say you are never too old.

I only knew they had daughter Ellen who was born on the 25 February 1885 on the birth certificate and Edward was still Joiner then by trade, her name was Ellen daughter of Edward Griffiths  Joiner and Ellen Griffiths formerly Bromilow, and they were living at 83 Albert Street, Barrow.
Not quite sure about Edwards birth he puts age 28 years on the marriage certificate and Ellen is 19 years, Edward was baptised  on the 24 July 1836 at Hope Flintshire,  but it does not give his birth.

I wonder if it was Ellen the daughter who advertised in the paper, I'm sure it must have been.
So they had other children beside Ellen who died young.

Thank you all once again I will digest all the information you have given me now.  :)

Can anyone please help find  Edward  &  Ellen Griffiths (formerly Bromilow) after 1871
Edward Griffiths was born in Hope Flintshire in 1836 his parents were Edward & Mary Griffiths, Edward married Ellen Bromilow on 19 June 1867 in The Parish Church  Deane  Lancashire, Ellen’s father ‘s name was Joseph Bromilow and Ellen was born about 1848  in Lostock, Lancashire,
I have them on census up to 1871 then can’t find them on any others, they had a daughter I know about and have her birth certificate, on the 1881 census Daughter Ellen Griffiths is with her fathers sister as adopted daughter .

So I am wondering what happen to Edward & Ellen Griffiths I can’t find a death for them or any other census after 1871.
I would appreciate any help with this couple please , I have not been doing my family history for a while so I am a bit rusty.

Hi Catone

Many thanks for your time finding Mary A for me, I have trie all sorts of versions for Faulkner but not that one , on one census the all family was transcribed as KRUICK and on the original it was Faulkner quite plain.

So thank you again you are a star Catone.   :D
