Hi both

Eileen do you have any family details for Louisa?

The one Anne has found is the nearest in age, but there is a Louisa b Merthyr which is nearer geographically.

Do you know her father's name from either of the marriage certs?

kind regards, Arranroots

Hi,
 thank you both for looking for me, I do not have Louisa's marriage cert, but will send for it, to obtain her father's name. I do not have any family details, as my father is very tight lipped about his mothers family, Louisa's Son, William Hook, apparently made a very quick exit from Ross when he was young, because of some trouble he was in, (I
haven't found out what) and went to London.
I will ask for another look up when I have the cert, or maybe it will prove Ann's is the one.
 Thank you both for the look up and advice.
Kind regards Eileen

Hi again Eileen

Do you know anything more about William?  If we can find him on censuses with his family, it should be possible (in theory!) to trace his mother backwards.  What was Mr HOOK's first name?  When were they married?

I had a quick look and couldn't find a Louisa HOOK on later censuses that appeared to match (unless she was known as Annie and had a daughter Louisa?)

kind regards, Arranroots

Hi Arranroots, Thank you for getting back to me,
