if it is her sister why isn't she down in the 81 and 91 census records. I don't think its the right family you've got there

There aren't any Allison children with a mother's maiden name of Cullen coming up in Lincolnshire between 1902 and William Robert Allison's death in 1936 that I can see. They had been married for nine years by the time of the 1911 census - by which time William was 39 and Mary Ann 41 - and had no children noted on the census return - either alive or dead. Doesn't mean there weren't any, but it isn't looking that promising...

A Mary Ann Allison died in 1949 in Grimsby, aged 79 - which seems likely to be her. It looks like she was born in 1869 in Lincoln, to William Cullen (a chimney sweep) and Eliza Wilson. I can't find her on the 1891 or 1901 census though, which is a bit annoying - was trying to see how she might have come across William Robert Allison, who she married in 1902  :)

Not sure how much information English marriage certificates hold - the index simply says that William Robert Allison's father was William Allison - if the marriage certificate names the mother, and the father's occupation, then that would probably be the simplest way of ruling him in or out as your William Robert Allison...

Ruth
McArthur, Milne, Mitchell, Black, Robertson, Morrison, Slessor, Lawrence - Aberdeenshire/Banffshire. Muir, Waddell, Fraser, Orr, Cowden - Lanarkshire/Renfrewshire/Dunbartonshire. Dalziel, Dalzell, Gourley, Cromie, Crombie, Bell - Co Down. Haymon, Baker, Corke, Cooley, Ginger - Kent/London.

Hello,
     Yes, 'ammack' is right, 1901 Census. (A**try) James Parker, listed on Line 21. Eliza, Line 22. James M, Line 23. Hugh L Parker listed on Line 1, ie: first line of a new page. All at Household Schedule Number 43. Hugh L Parker 14 Office Boy b Glasgow.
     Suggested Records on this site have a Hugh Love Parker listed in US Border Crossings from Canada to US., & Hugh Love Parker, listed several times on Massachusetts Passenger & Crew Lists.
     1911 England Census has a Hugh Parker 24 b Glasgow, with the 11th Hussars in Kent, but there are 2 (maybe more) Hugh Parkers b Glasgow abt 1887
     Doesn't help track your William, but sometimes odd snippets of information can be the last piece of the jigsaw.
               Regards,     Dod.

Hello -- Wondering what William R Allison's relation is to Walter Allison. I replied on the other thread of yours -- Walter Allison was my great great grandfather.
