Have James G. Hamer (1863- ) Parents William Hamer & Amelia Gregson)
Walmersley, Bury area.
According to the 1911 - Simons Sport Farm, Hawkshaw Lane, Ramsbottom - Labourer Cotton Mill
Wife Alice Ann Hamer. Married approx. 1882.
First child was born in 1883.
Cannot find a marriage between 1880-1882. Don't know if wife was Alice Ann ........ or was in fact Alice Ann Hamer.
Tried the Anc/Freebmd/Familysearch and Zilch.
Hamer is a very common name in the Bury and surrounding areas.
Grateful for assistance.

Hi,
Have you discounted this marriage found on LancsBMD:
James Hamer and Alice Ann Gaskell 1883 Bury (Register Office or Registrar Attended)
Ramsbottom is in the Bury Registration District.
A birth certificate for one of their choldren will show Alice's maiden name.

Eileen Hamer born 1902 Bury mothers maiden name Gaskill from Lancs BMD site

Looked at lancs.bmd to check the seven children from the 1911. Found only one child the son Harold b.1900. (mother Gaskell)
Did'nt see Eileen b.1902 Bury.
I put in Hamer and mother Gaskell and the various dates of the children - "Lancashire".
Have I searched the wrong way?
However thank you both very much for your time and interest. Appreciated.
Steve
Correction: Just tried without putting mothers' maiden name and found the entries with maiden name.
