Looking for a wedding and Maiden name

#hopefully not to great a challenge

Henry Wright, born 1849 in Astwood, marries a girl from North Crawley called Emily..... She might have a birth about 1849 as well, certainly the cencus data supports this

Cant find wedding though!!

Which census do they first appear as man n wife?

Oliver Childs
Emily Lathall
Lucy Wright

Seems Oliver Childs married Lucy Wright in that same quarter. The 1871 census has them living in High Street, North Crawley. Oliver born 1837 Clifton Reynes & Lucy born 1844 North Crawley, but there are three Childs children listed..... the eldest Thomas born 1860. In 1861 Oliver was married to Sarah born 1835 North Crawley while Oliver says he's now born in Bletsoe, Beds?  Lucy possibly daughter of Enoch Wright & Harriett Campion.

Henry Wright was baptised 18 Feb 1849 at Astwood, son of Eli Wright & Sarah Rebecca Tyrrell.

Eli was brother to the above Enoch.

Neither marriage took place at Astwood

I hadnt found the 1871 cencus so thats really usefull. Does it say what relation Lucy is to the head of house?

Emily Lathall is one of the names i found yesterday as Henry's possible spouse.

Its never easy to be certain so thanks again for the cross referencing. This surname is very prevelant in North Bucks, so there is a lot of work to be done.

Also there is a Wright family in North Crawley that are not related, and occurances in most of the North Bucks villages.

In 1871 Lucy was wife of Oliver Childs. I would suggest they married in Clifton Reynes - where Oliver's parents & siblings were living in 1871 having moved from Bletsoe, Beds around 1843; or in North Crawley where Lucy's parents were in 1871. As per 1881 census Oliver & Lucy were living in Simpson, Bucks with children Alfred 1872, Emma 1875 & Harriett 1879.

Lucy Childs death index Newport Pagnell RD in Mar 1887 aged 42
Oliver Childs death index Aylesbury RD in Mar 1888 aged 50

In 1891 their son Alfred Childs b 1872 North Crawley is living in Sherington, Bucks being nephew to Charles & Elizabeth Nursaw. Charles Nursaw/Nursall married Elizabeth Wright in Newport Pagnell RD in Sept 1878 - she being Lucy's sister, another daughter of Enoch & Harriett Wright baptised at North Crawley on 12 July 1857.

This is the kind of things we actually love.......................enigmas 

People think genealogy is boring, a waste of time, we are sad etc.
They just don't understand our interest
