I was wondering if there was a place that Germans that married in England had to inform someone. I am thinking about my ancestors marraige around 1891 that I cannot find and looking for somewhere where I could find details of their marriage. My gt. gdf was German and his wife English. Any ideas? Regards Irene

Nothing in particular that I can help you with, but have you tried The Anglo German Family History Society. They may have more direction for you.

Thanks Shirley - I have been looking for a longtime and cannot find them. Charles Hermann/Alice Stroud. I think perhaps Charles had changed his name but may have married in his German name which I do not know. I think they may have married around 1891 at Hoxton Old Town Shoreditch or around that area because that is where their first child is born Feb 1892. On that birth certificate father is Otto Hermann, my grandfather who is born later father is Charles Hermann. I have purchased 2 wedding certificates in desparation. Alice Stroud to Benjamin Amsden Biner August 1890 but Biner was not German. Alice Greaves to Otto Reinhold Haus Herrmann May 1890 think Alice may have been married before but no her father was named Greaves as well and not Stroud. Perhaps Charles/Otto and Alice never married or married much later. Alice is Herman on the death certificate. Very frustrating because I cannot tie up the right Alice Stroud or find out Charles German name. Another pair of eyes looking at this would be great. They are together in the 1901 census. Charles states he is a british subject born in Germany. Any help would be much appreciated. Best wishes Irene

Thanks Shirley - Binner is the wrong line. I went there and bought the certificates thinking it was a connection because he married Alice Stroud.
My ancestor is Charles Hermann in the 1901 census at 6 Manilla Street. Poplar . On the first child born in 1892 it states father Otto Hermann and Alice Stroud as parents. My grandfather born 1899 the names of parents has changed to Charles Hermann and Alice Stroud.
What I am desparate for is the wedding certificate because I cannot tie up the family that Alice Stroud came from. I do not know Hermann's German name (that is why I cannot find the certificate)- why did he start off Otto and then become Charles. In the 1901 census he state he is a british subject. Was this from the marriage or did he get nationalized . Did they ever get married? I will keep plugging away. Thanks for your time. Regards Irene

Hi there Shriley - sorry I have not replied to you sooner. I have had a busy time of late and have not been online much. Thanks you so much for checking out my ancestors. I have not been able to find the marriage of Alice and Charles/Otto Hermann. Perhaps they never married. I am going to try to go to Bancroft Road and see if they have any more details on Charles. He had a hairdressers on the Isle of Dogs and paid rates ect so they may some information on him. I really appreciate you looking for me. Many thanks Irene

Hi Avro,
here's where I found the Info.: http://gedbas.genealogy.net/suchen.jsp;jsessionid=D659EC6B96F8451682E51E779F85D6AA This is a german database
I can't confirm your german/dutch question but both are likely, in fact, another database: http://www.geneanet.org/ ( more international one) gives 60 Schilps, most of them dutch ! http://search4.geneanet.org/result.php3?source=&name=schilp&place=&recherche.x=6&recherche.y=5
Good luck, keep us posted !

I am interested in your message mentioning Benjamin Amsden Biner. I believe he may be in my (husband's) family tree. I have Benjamin Biner b.circa 1866 Rotherhithe, s/o William George Biner and Hephzibar Amsden. I've no further information on Benjamin, but William George was a linen draper and married Hephzibar in 1859 in Stepney. Heph was sister to my husband's g.g.grandfather John Amsden.
