Frances (Fanny) Jane Waite

[Tim Brayshaw]

I have a Frances (Fanny) Jane Waite, born 1886 in Lambeth, Surrey.

Her marriage certificate, in 1910 to a Frank Jordan shows her father as Charles Waite a Fruit Salesman (Doesn't say deceased). She is a spinster so not previously married. She was married in the county of Kent (Medway?)

I can not find her on the census in 1891 or 1901, or in 1911 with her husband either.

Can anyone help find this person?

Pauline

22 years old, it looks like it says, Stoker, RM as occupation. And address was 10 Dale Street, Chatham. They lived together at the time.

Not necessarily. A lot of couples gave the same address so that the banns only had to be called in one church as it was cheaper. Sometimes it was the address of a friend or relative.

Thank you for that piece of information, i wasn't aware. Also thank you for the baptism record...I'm trying to find the marriage from that now; as both the Jordans and Waites are becoming very difficult to find across the board!
