Mary Ann Ogier

[tropicalj]

hello  there 
by  a  quick  search  around  it appears  that Ogier could be a  name  from  the Channel Islands

I  have  a William reeves  born  around 1859  in bishops gate  London
to a  William  reeves and a  Mary Ann ogier

this  is  from  his  wedding certificates  one  in  Scotland the  other Australia

but  I  cannot  find  him  on  any  census  prior  to Scotland  in 1881  he  married  there 1879

any  help appreciated

regards Jenn

Bishops Gate is in the square mile of city of London.

From the certificates what was William's father's occupation?

Shoreditch would be closer to the city and Bishopsgate but this William is slightly older and still not born in the city itself.

1871 census RG10 320 folio 45
