St Matthews, Bethnal Green marriage

[Jono]

Looking for marriage of Alfred Giles and Susannah Vandome (Vandame).

Child Amelia b 8/7/1839 so marriage would be up to a few years before that. Not on freeBMD so maybe before 1837

Can anyone find them in the 1841 census at 22 Nelson Street bethnal green - address from Amelia's birth cert.

thanks

THEY MARRIED:

04 FEB 1827   Saint Matthew, Bethnal Green, London, England

The record is on IGI - and sadly only shows one christening for Amelia 18 Aug 1839 at St Matthews...it says she was 1yo when christened by the way!

Looking at Free BMD, they may have had a son Alfred b 1843

I presume Amelia married Daniel FARRELL in 1859?

Susannah may have died in the 1850's - there are a few deaths of that name around Stepney and Whitechapel etc although there is a Susannah GILES death in 1876 aged 62 in Bethnal Green - which would have made her just 13 when she married in 1827, so its probably the wrong gal!

Its possible Susannah VANDOME was b 1803, Stepney to John & Elizabeth- there are others of the same name around Bethnal Green as well

I hope someone can find the family for you in the censuses

Cheers

That just goes to show you can't trust IGI - just as so many have said!

In that case, the death is probably correct as I mentioned above!

Cheers

so maybe the marriage was 4/2/1837?

Any suggestions on how to find the parents names?There are several Susannahs in IGI b 1815/1816 but need the father's name to know which is the right one.


Thanks for that Kiwi. Glad to see that one Kiwi can help another

It's very faint. 

 Was he a silk weaver?

I have a family in Bethnal Green at about the same time & they all seemed to have a daughter Eliza - a number of whom are on the IGI both for births and marriages. It's not a matter of "trusting" the IGI, but finding the right parish record. Like any transcription, it could be a transcription error or an original error of fact. Your record was an extracted record & it may be a transcription error or may be another couple of the same names. Records from the IGI can always be checked by ordering the film at your local LDS centre.

Was he a silk weaver?
From my limited experience 90% of Bethnal Green folks at that time were silk weavers

I think the occupation starts with Silk (cannot see the rest)
the lass seems to be Mealie (pet name perhaps) and I think her age is 2
The address may be Brick lane (from previous page)
