Title: two marriages?
Post by: bozzwell on Tuesday 25 January 11 21:50 GMT (UK)
George Frederick Hilton B 1874 St Pancras. His father is named as George Thomas Eastwood. I'm curious as to the different surnames and wonder if George Frederick Hilton was from a previous marriage. His mother's maiden surname name was Eliza Head.
Thankyou.

I can't see a George Frederick Hilton born in Pancras in 1874  ???

Ae you taking this info from the childs birth cert? If so you do realise that the surname of the child is never given It is presumed to be the same as the mothers,which would normally say Eliza Eastwood formerly Head.

However, for the 4 entries for 1c 923 George Thomas Eastwood married Sarah Britain on 10 Aug 1869 and Frederick Peters married Eliza Head on 27 July 1869. Both marriages at St Paul, Bow Common.

And one tree cites the 1869 marriage refs that Nigel has proved (Eastwood/Head marriage) did not happen  ;D
