How did I not see that?! That’s great thanks!

William was born in Lerwick, Shetland. That’s a huge step. I had been looking all over London!

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / William Anderson and Alice Maud Lee or Howell, Poplar, married 1914
« on: Saturday 18 November 23 16:30 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I am confused and stuck on this couple on my tree. I have ordered the marriage certificate, but it hasn't come yet. William Anderson married Alice Maud Howell in Poplar in 4th quarter 1914. They had the following four children: Joseph William b 1916, Christina Elizabeth b 1918, Francis Peter b 1921 and Stanley born 1924. All the births are registered in Poplar. However for the births of three of the children Alice's maiden name is Lee and for the birth of Christina it's Howell. I presumed that Alice Maud had been born Lee and had a previous husband Howell, but I have been unable to find a marriage for that.

On the children's' baptisms, William is listed as a shipwright.

On the 1939 census Alice is a widow and is with her three youngest children still in Poplar. Her birthdate is given as 24th Oct 1880. I know these can sometimes be a year of so out, but I'm sticking with that for now. I have four a possible death for Alice in Poplar on 1965.

I have been unable to find any information about William and I am really confused about who Alice Maud actually is  - Lee or Howell.

If anyone has access to records in Poplar could look this up for me, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

I think John Henry married Lily Williams in 1928. She looks to have died :(

Newspaper report: The Express Saturday 5th September 1936
Lily Freeman (28) 22 Knollbeck Lane, Brampton Brierlow, who died at Alma Road Hospital, Rotherham., death was due to septicaema arising from an attempt to seek an abortion. The husband John Henry Freeman, a miner, said a seven year old son died a week before his mother. The father said there were two other children.

That is so sad. Minnie's mother Emily died the same day that her youngest sibling was born. I always find those records really sad.

Thanks. I had seen the E Minnie and thought that the E was a mistake. I have her birth certificate so the birth date is correct. I had looked and looked for every possible marriage and death, yet you found it!

Yes her birthdate is 2 November 1916. I am presuming it is her on the 1921 census.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Minnie Morrall born 1916 in Wombwell

Hi, I am looking for Minnie Morrall born in 1916 in Wombwell. Her parents were Herbert Morrall and Elsie Driver. Minnie is with her family in Wombwell on the 1921 census. Her mother dies after childbirth in 1930 and Minnie is not on the 1939 census with her father in Pudsey. She would be 23 in 1939. I can't find either a marriage or a death for Minnie. If anyone can look her up for me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Shropshire / Hannah Maria Morrall born 1834 and George Morrall born 1836
« on: Sunday 15 October 23 20:30 BST (UK)  »
A member of my Miner family Ann Miner married George Morrall in 1826 at All Saints in Wellington. They had children and most of the family including them moved to Hunslet in the 1870’s. Two of their children Hannah Maria and George didn’t move and I can’t find either of them after the 1841 census. I am presuming they died, but I can’t find death records either. Any help with this would be really appreciated. Thanks!
