Hi
Thank you for all your help. If he married Elizabeth WHITWORTH in 1885, what happened to her?

 She is not with Edward on the 1891 cnesus. Plus I have not been able to trace Edward DEVEY after 1891.

Many thanks Helen

Hi
The marriage to Elizabeth WHITWORTH is likely to be correct as one of the witnesses appears to be his sister Marian WILSON nee DEVEY who later I think died in Mexico in 1892.

Edward is in Everton in the 1911 census with Martha ..Not seeing a death for Elizabeth Whitworth so far ..maybe they divorced

Hi
Thank you Rosie for finding Edward's whereabouts in 1911.

Has any one been able to find Edward in 1901?

Thank you in advance.
Helen

Elizabeth Devey (Witworth )age 42  is with her father Thos Jones age 66 occupation Whitesmith at Copley Street Everton so looks like they divorced

Hi all,
Thank you everyone helping myself sort out Edward DEVEY and his three marriages.

I assume that his four children Julia b.1876, Marian b.1878, Jane b. 1880 and Thomas Edward b.1882 are from his first marriage with Annie DICKSON. I will start to try to trace them.

Thanks Helen
