And there are two Alice Hawthorne Axe's one born in 1863 and one in 1870, both in Doncaster

[Galium]

Perhaps the 1863 Alice didn't marry?

Deaths Jun  quarter 1912
AXE    Alice H    49    Doncaster    vol 9c   p 869

Yep, just noticed that Alice H was still at home in 1901

so where the 1870 Alice in 1891 ?

[Beatle]

I've got a George Abbot (who was married to a Maria) in 1871 census who was a GP in Leicester and later a surgeon in the Reynolds Newspaper in 1874

The 1870ish Alice Axe was with remarried mother and stepfather William Timlin in 1881, the family is still there in 1891, but Alice isnt - and no marriage pre-1891 ...

[Galium]

Is this  a third marriage?

Hmmm very possibly, thank you Galium

(Wouldn't you know it, just after the census (when it comes out ))

If you have access to the 19th Century British Library Newspaper collection, you may have seen a report from Derby Borough Police Court about Frederick Fant Abbott [Derby Mercury  3 May 1899].  He was summoned for travelling on the Midland Railawy without paying his proper fare.  It says that the defendant is a lecturer on shorthand, and that he did not appear because he was lecturing in Bristol.  It also mentions that he had given an address in London.

Reports in the Times from 1926 mention litigation between Frederick Fant Abbott, illusionist and several newspapers, for libel.
