Hi Ian.
Did you get to the bottom of your search for Samuel Carter please?
I'm looking for a Samuel Carter with a daughter Mary.
He was a Tailor, died before 9 June 1889.
She was Born circa 1868. She married and lived in Bristol for a while, also a Tailoress.
I have her spouse, children, etc from there on but hit hit a stop with her origins and all of his details.
Hope you can help.

Father's occupation Cabinetmaker

In 1841 Mary can be found in Tiverton with her mother Mary & siblings including an Elizabeth Acland who was probably her wedding witness.
There is also a baptism in Tiverton on 22 February 1824 for a Samuel Carter with parents Joseph & Ann - Josephs occupation is a Wool comber. This may be your Samuel

Hi rosie99.
" " :o That's me speechless! How on earth did your find her? We've tried all sorts and found nothing. What a Star!
Yes this:
Marriages Jun qtr 1889
Carter Mary
Gibbings. William Cudmore
Bedminster 5c 1181
...is indeed her. The Marriage Certificate confirms the address too.
We could only find a firm hit on the 1911 Census and a tentative one on the 1881 Census. And I see there's already a Tree created in Family Search too!
Absolute gold, thank you! thank you!

I am really pleased that I picked the right Mary Carter ;D. Glad I could help.
