I agree, it does take too long to tick all of the boxes and a “reject all” box would be of great help as this is reappearing on a regular basis.

Thanks,

We have the above gentleman born about 1832 in Harrow, Middlesex, son of Zachariah (a tailor) and Charlotte Brown. We have him in all census from 1841 to 1901 before he dies in 1907 in Yorkshire (we even have his parents and older children in the 1831 Census !).

He marries a Sophia Harbrow (a widow of ‘Full Age’) on 19/10/1862 in St Marys Church, Islington, Middlesex, with the Marriage Cert showing her father as Henry Badger, a Cooper. Her address at the time of marriage was 2 Strahan Terrace (which we could not find by searching this address in the 1861 census on FindMyPast).

In the 1871 census, George Stevens (a Baker in 1861 & on his marriage certificate) is found in Leeds, Yorkshire showing as widowed. In 1881 he is shown as single, living in Clifford cum Boston, Yorkshire. He subsequently remarries in 1887 to Ann Wilson in Bradford.

The question is, who was Sophia Badger/Harbrow as having looked for birth/marriage/death/census we have failed to find any trace of her.

Thank you,

Bookbox,

Thank you for your speedy response and yes, we think you have got it right first time. Now known as Les Canichers on Google maps.

Thanks again,

My one complaint with Thrulines is that Ancestry does not give you the option to reject any proposed matches.  I have seen a number of matches for alleged half- brothers, where no proof of these additional lines/relationships exist.
