The Common Room / Re: Sarah Livingstone / Livingston

Well considering her circumstances back in Wrexham its possibly her.
I looked for Bennett families in Wrexham around her birth year and there were a few in the census for 1861 onwards but none with a Harriet.  I wonder if she used another  name,  did she know Leopold was already married,  he was a well known man in the Wrexham area and had lived in Broughton for quite a while.
There's some interesting bits about him in the Wrexham Advertiser
Why did they marry in Chorlton then return to Wrexham.  Was she really from Wrexham.
Ive not found a death for a Harriet Livingstone,  I wonder if she went back to Bennett.
Leopold married again in 1904 , he wasn't legally married to Harriet.  I wonder if Sarah had died by then.

So many questions.
Thank for helping

I am at a 'brick wall'. On my wife's side of the family I cannot find any record of birth of her grandfather John Henry Jacques.
We are not sure where he was born the only thing we have to go on is on the 1921 census he has entered Birth Place Barnsley Yorkshire. We have his Army number 73739.
On his marriage cert 12 April 1917, he states he is 25yrs old, and his wife Lilian Street is listed as 30yrs old but 3 years later on the 1921 census she is 36 and he is 29yrs 8mths?
His father is listed as John Jacques (Deceased) on the wedding cert.
I have been going around in circles looking and don't know where else to look.
Can you help please.

What occupation is given. Does his father have occupation. Any witnesses names that could give clues.

Just looked at Liverpool marriages for the same time , some have no extra details but others have both fathers and some have mothers maiden name.

I suppose your best bet is asking the records office.

I can't see anything except Liverpool.  You could contact the records office.

Is the father named on the certificate you have, any witnesses. Are you trying to find them before the marriage.
Mothers name isn't normally given on any marriage certificate.
