I'm trying to find the marriage of Edward Gifford, born 1846 Tottenham, Middlesex, England and Maria Elizabeth Murray, also born 1846. On the 1881 census in Tottenham, England it say she is born in Middlesex.
I have found Edward in America on the 1870 census
Under Gifferd
Living in Franklin, Delaware, Sydney, New York USA
Edward Gifford - Born1846 - England - Age 24 - Occupation - Labourer (Works on Farm).
In then have Edward and Maria Gifford on the 1875 census
Living in Afton, Chenango, New York, USA
Edward Gifford - Born1846 - England - Age 29 - Occupation - R.R. Hand
Wife - Maria Gifford - Born1846 - England - Age 29
After that in 1881 I have them both back in Tottenham, Middlesex, England with 3 children.
Annie Gifford born 1876 USA
Edward Albert Gifford born 1879 Woodgreen, Middlesex
Eliza Gifford - Born1880 - Woodgreen, Middlesex.
Maria Elizabeth Gifford dies in 1886. Then Edward & the children disappear.
can anyone help me find a marriage for Edward and Maria and may be a birth cert for Annie. I don't know if Annie is her real name or not. Also what occupation is a R R Hand.
I cannot find a return passenger list for them coming back to England.
Any help would very grateful.
Thanks Maxine
