Hello All.
I have details of a two marriages the first one 6/12/1890 St Philip's Lambeth
William Henry Griffiths to Elizabeth Shilton or Shelton
The other being 11/9/1905 Stonebridge Parish Church, Middlesex.
William Mansell to Elizabeth Griffiths widow
I have had these details a few years and can't remember where I obtained them.
Are there images that I saw.

The images of both are on Ancestry.

Thank you Liz in those days I made the error of not putting down where I got the information from. Alan

Unfortunately only the first one as an image and the second one is the one I really wanted. Alan

On her first marriage she has her name as Shilton reg. Shillton and her father as John Shilton.
On her second marriage she has her father as John Shelton.
On her birth it has Shelton mothers maiden name Murphy.
1881 census Shilton widowed mother Ellen.
but I can't find a marriage John Shilton/Shelton and Ellen Murphy.
I just suddenly wondered if there is a baptism at Philp's Lambert for Elizabeth she was born 6/12/1870.

I wonder if this is her birth:
GRO
SHILLTON, ELIZABETH mmn HUTT
1870 M Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 01D Page 383
There's a possible match on FreeBMD Dec Qtr 1853 St George Southwark-John SHILLTON and Eleanor HUTT.

It looks like that could well be her because looking at that 1881 census their surname was spelt Shillton.
I got the DOB from the 1939. So may be she was born 1869. I can see now the birth I had was Elizabeth Shelton June qtr 1871.
The thing that is strange is her death in 1949 says she was 74. Although the address where she died is the address they were at in 1939.

Thanks Maureen for your help rechecking everything her name was Shillton and not Shilton even on her first marriage. So that is her parents. The thing that threw me was when she put Shelton on her second marriage.

Spelling could be pretty irregular on a lot of records.
Glad you're sorted with the parents now.

Yes thank you, I did all this about 15 years ago the census and births and deaths adding the 1939 dates of birth many years after so I am just going through it all again and realising some of the dates of birth on the 1939 may not be accurate perhaps the day and month are correct but the year is wrong.

Just had a look at the image of her second marriage on Ancestry. Her father 's name is quite clearly written as John SHILLTON.
