Ayres/Lazenby

[Pheasent Plucker]

Has any one seen a marriage record for my great grandparents, Clement Arthur Ayres & Florence Maud Lazenby? They were both living in the Hull area on the 1901 census, he was 20, she was 16. They would have married sometime between 1901 & 1905, when their first child -also Clement Arthur- was born in Barton upon Humber, Lincs. Their marriage was not registered. I would be most gratefull for any help.

Hi, and welcome to RootsChat.

There is a rudimentary family tree on Ancestry with these two names on it (you can access it through worldconnect at rootsweb if you are not an Ancestry subscriber).

This says that Florence was Clement's second wife, first wife unknown, and it shows a daughter Ada Elizabeth Ayres born to the first marriage in 1907.

THis seems quite different from the info you have. Perhaps you should communicate with the person involved (gives email address).

Cheers,

Cheers Ros,
I am an ancestry.com subscriber, but have not got access to their family tree section. I would be interested to contact whoever posted that tree, although the daughter you mention Ada Elizabeth was definitely Florence's daughter. I know because she was my Gran. and I have birth cert. coincidently today would have been her birthday. It is I suppose possible that Clement had been married before though, would it be possible for you to give me that Rootsweb link?

Regards,

Steve.

Hi Steve,

Here's the link:

It seems the person who posted this is also a descendant of Ada, so you could be meeting a new cousin!

Hi Ros,

Thanks for that, the other info. they've got looks ok. but I'm sure that there wasn't a first wife. I do know the sender and will contact him to find out whats going on.

Cheers, Steve.
