Title: Mary Ann Macvee (Mcvee, Mcree, Macree)
Post by: curtisd on Tuesday 21 May 13 18:16 BST (UK)
Hi,

I am searching for ancestors of Mary Ann Macvee (Also spelled McVee, MacRee, McRee). She married December 22 1874 Poplar to Francis John Mallinder. According to marriage she was born around 1848, her father appears to say Neal Macvee. I have been unable to find a birth or marriage for her parents.

Regards,

Curtis

Hi

According to marriage she was born around 1848,

You haven't given any details of where she was born - 1881 shows Leamington Warwickshire

Have you looked for her on earlier censuses to see where her parents were born

I could not finding anything using FreeCEN. My Ancestry subscription just ran out.

Does it list the parents on the Census you found?

It was the 1881 census so she was married by then

If she was born Leamington Warwickshire on the 1881 census - she is unlikely to be the 1861 entry you found

Who were the witnesses on the marriage, what was her fathers occupation.

Fathers occupation was laborer. Residence of Francis John Mallinder and Mary Ann Macvee was both Bow. Witnesses were John and Maria, I am unsure of their surname it looks like Gunnwood

I have just checked the 1891 and she again gives her birthplace as Leamington Warwickshire

She died 1900 aged 52

I thought that it said Neal. Do you think it says a different name for her father?

It does look like Neal but I'm not 100% certain so thought somebody seeing the entry may come up with something different.

I can't see any census entry for Mary prior to the 1881
