Laura Anne Millen - reputably born Portmouth 1840 ish

[Hystericalwriter]

I have a marriage of Robert WARREN and Laura Anne MILLEN on 16th August 1859, she says her father's name is Francis, a labourer. In 1861 the couple are living in Portsea Island RG9/639/f40.

By 1871 Robert has remarried as a widower, and I know most about him and second marriage. But I cannot find any trace of Laura Anne in any other census, nor am sure when she died and if there were any children of this marriage.

Any ideas?

When and where did Robert remarry?  That will narrow the scope of the hunt for a death.

What age was given for Laura on the marriage?

Are they the Robert and ANNE Warren shown in 1861 - full ref RG9/639/40/33?  If she was known as Anne that is relevant to the search for other records for her, as are her age (20 in 1861) and birthplace (Portsmouth).

Robert remarried at Ventnor IOW 1871:
Ann[e]'s age is entered as "full" on marriage cert

I have looked at the IOW bmd site for Warren births just in case she died there (giving birth) but there is no child with a mother's name as MILLEN on that.

On FreeBMD there is an Anne WARREN death age 28, Sep Q 1869 2b 330 on the IOW:

Its not that important, he is my relative, so more interested in the WARREN line, but I was just curious that I just cannot find any evidence of her existence prior to 1861

Thanks I have just repeated your information

There are births for a few Millens and Millans on Portsea, and some showing in the censuses, but not her or a Father Frances.
Whether she was irish, and just claimed Portsmouth because that was where she settled is a possibility.
