Hi Arranroots

The George Lawrence on the 1851 census is mine, he married Emma Mustoe, they're my G G G Grandparents, so its not him.

Before i get confused even more.....whose Thomas or do you mean William..

Hi Arranroots

i have the 1901 census info, Cornelius & Eliza are living at 15 Cleveland St, Cheltenham with 3 of Eliza children from her previous marraige.
I have'nt tried looking for a William/George Lawrence, not having a birth year for them etc.
As for Matilda, cant find her after the 1861 census, cant seem to be able to find a marraige for her either.

Hi ya,

 Eliza Price was born 1856, Tirley, Glos. She Married a George Pearce...dont know when. On the Marraige cert to Cornelius, Eliza Pearce'  age is 45 and she's down as Widow.
Cornelius is down as Widower and his age is 52.

Hi ya Tiffy, i should have known that this Lawrence family would be trouble from the details on the 1851/61 census !!!!

Cornelius George Lawrence was living at Greens Cottage, Tewkesbury Rd, Cheltenham.

Eliza Pearce (Nee Price) was living at 33 Queen Street, Cheltenham.

Morning Arranroots

The only details that are on this 2nd Marraige Cert that i was expecting are the names of the married couple...ha ha ha
I was hoping in a way that the Father for Cornelius was left blank....like his Birth cert !! instead it gives a different fathers name on this marraige cert to Cornelius' 1st Marraige cert.
As for the Witnesses, i have no idea who they are : Charles Cooke & Alice Cooke, i dont have those names in my tree.

Cornelius & Eliza married on 13/9/1899 at the Register Office in Cheltenham, Glos.

So this Marraige cert has'nt helped me at all in finding who Cornelius' father was, just baffled me even more.

Well i got the 2nd Marraige cert this morning for George Cornelius Lawrence and the worst thing that i could think off has happened................he has a different name for his Father on this cert !!!!!!!!!!!
On this certificate his fathers name is "George Lawrence" Deceased....Occupation : Miller.

SO...on his Birth cert there is no Father mentioned.

On his 1st Marraige cert his Father is William Lawrence...Occupation : Labourer.

On his 2nd Marraige cert his Father is George Lawrence...Occupation : Miller.


I think i'll go along with what Valda said somewhere in this thread.....he did'nt know his Father and he just mentioned any name for the Marraiges to save face of not knowing who his father was... :-[

Unless i can find a William George...OR...George William Lawrence........but i think its unlikely.

You wana see how many female rellies i have in my tree having kids out of wedlock, 1 woman had 2 and sent them to Barnardos kids home, 1 of the boys was then sent to Australia, he's still alive today.
I've laughed at how people go on about women today having kids before marraige, i often wonder if they've researched their family tree before......they might be in for a shock....ha ha ha

I'll let you know the outcome of George's Marraige Cert when/if it arrives.

Morning Lynne,

just to let you know that im still waiting for the Marraige cert to turn up.
I keep standing in the front window watching for the postie, trying to see if he has a nice large white envelope coming my way......but NO, not yet.
It'd had better shed some light as to who his father could be after this long wait, just my luck its going to have a different fathers name to whats on his 1st marraige cert or blank like his birth cert... :o

Devon Lookup Requests / Re: help needed in finding 2 Birth details, PLEASE
« on: Friday 03 March 06 12:39 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks Andrea, i did'nt try a different way of spelling their surname because in the past we have never had any problems with the spelling, just strange how we cant find the birth details for the brother and sister.
Im a member of another site that deal with a lot of Devon enquiries, i'll see if anyone there can help.

Thank you
