Title: 1903 marriage of Patrick MODIFIED TO HENRY Welsh
Post by: wilcoxon on Monday 22 October 12 21:12 BST (UK)
THIS HAS NOW BEEN FOUND TO BE THE WRONG MARRIAGE
Free  BMD
Marriages Sep 1903   
WELSH  Patrick   / Connell Margaret   

I`ve been trying to find more details on Lancashire BMD and Online parish clerks , but can`t locate this marriage.

I`m trying to find the fathers of the couple or at least where they married.

They are quite difficult to trace in 1901, and in 1911  when married they are in seperate households, which doesn`t help to confirm I have the right match.

Patrick is married but a boarder in Birkenhead, Margaret is in Liverpool age 26 and married 7 years.
Patrick is born Durham Sunderland c 1885 and Margaret b Liverpool c 1885

Any suggestions , thanks.

1891 and 1901 have a Patrick Welsh b 1884/5 Sunderland. Parents Patrick and Margaret.
In 1901, Patrick is a 'Rivett Heater Shipyard'

Were there any children born after 1911 - mother's maiden name would be shown in birth registers.

Thanks.

1891 and 1901 have a Patrick Welsh b 1884/5 Sunderland. Parents Patrick and Margaret.

This is him in the next census.

and this is who I am guessing is his wife,  I don`t know about any later children , I am looking back from Helena. 
Address 158 Dryden St , Scotland, Liverpool
Margaret Welsh Head of Household  26  born Liverpool Lancs

If Helena is your ancestor, it would be best to get the birth certificate to see what information shows there.

There is a birth for Ellen in 1907 which is possibly her.

There is a published tree which has the same Patrick Welsh marrying a Jane McKenna in Durham  :-\  and Free BMD has children with these names.

How do you know that Helena's father is Patrick? Is that from a marriage certificate?

There is another tree which has Henry Welsh and Margaret Rennie as parents of a Helena.

Free BMD has a marriage for Harry Welsh and Margaret Rennie in 1904.

Marriages Dec 1935 
Bailey  Stanley F  / Welsh  Liverpool N  8b 1117   
Welsh  Helena R /  Bailey  Liverpool N.  8b 1117

The above marriage is  definately correct .

As yet I don`t have the marriage certificate, this is all for a friend who wants to know more about her family.

Details are rather sketchy so far.
She is the daughter of this couple and has the middle name of Douglas,
My friend was born in Conway.
I think that these may be the deaths but am not able find ages as  Free BMD stops before then.
BAILEY Helena,  Wales Caernarvonshire, Bangor 1975
BAILEY Stanley Frederick, Wales Caernarvonshire, Aberconwy 1976

He did say that the family had something to do with the shipbuilding trade, but  I guess that can be said of most of the families in Birkenhead / Liverpool .

 I did say I was guessing Patrick was the father, and that`s why I was looking for the marriage .
I have contacted her and said we really do need the marriage certificate first for father, and then birth certificate for mother.
I was hoping they would be somewhere on a site like Lancs Parish Clerks, but not found them so far.

Thanks for your help.

Hi again,

Margaret Rennie was born Margaret Douglas Rennie so I would say that you need the Harry Welsh/Margaret Rennie marriage.

Thanks Isobell.
 I had worked out that Margaret was only about 18 when she married, and that the one I found living alone with her children, including  Helena  was about the same age.
I found a couple of Henry Welsh` s  registered in Liverpool, but just to throw a spanner in the works.  ::)

Same time as Margaret is alone in Liverpool I have found

 
14 Margaret Street, Llanbeblig ,  Carnarvon
Mary Ann Harris head widow 61 b Bristol
Harry Welsh married boarder 26  corrugated iron worker b Renfrew Greenoch
There are also 2 other married boarders doing the same type of work,  one born Everton the other West Derby.

Thanks , so Henry would be about 8 or 9 .

Ah - no! He is 5 years.  1901 - he is 15 yrs.  So if this is the same one he would only be 18 yrs on marriage. :-\

These ages seem to be close enough,  I wonder if he was fibbing a little about his age.
His wife Margaret was only 19.
22 Nov 1904 Liverpool St Nicholas
Harry Welsh 21  (b c 1883 )bachelor labourer of 6 Doncaster Street father Andrew Welsh deceased cooper

From 1911
Harry Welsh married boarder 26  corrugated iron worker b Renfrew Greenoch b c 1885
1901 - he is 15 yrs
1891 Ah - no! He is 5 years,

I don`t have access to census so am trying to fill in the gaps.
This seems to be his fathers death, Its the only one between 1891 and 1904,
Deaths Dec 1901   WELSH Andrew 53 Islington Liverpool ISL/136/25  (b c 1848)
