Title: Where is Edward Skinner?
Post by: ~Rachel~ on Thursday 15 October 20 14:13 BST (UK)

Hello,

I am working backwards searching for records on Edward Skinner and have been unable to find him before his marriage. He died in 1870.

Born abt. 1838 and according to the 1861 census he was born in Bow, Middlesex. (In 1861 he was living in Woolwich and was a musician in the Royal Marines).

1859 - married Mary Ann Ketley in Woolwich. His father was listed as Thomas Ketley, a carpenter.

Please would someone be able to help me find him in 1851, 1841 and maybe a baptism? I have seen a couple of options but they do not have his father as baing a carpenter.

Thanks in advance :)

Looks like the Edward Skinner b 1838 was the son of Emma aged 24 who also died in the same qtr of 1838 as Edward.
