Clara Currey Meadminster 1848

[Hutchin_Graham]

Hi folks,
            can anybody please assist me in tracing a Clara Jane Currey/Currie born c.1848 in Meadminster Bristol? She may even be listed as Jane A Currey/Currie , as her name seems to change at more than one point. She apparently married Philip Ennis in Liverpool and had a daughter Emily Caroline, in 1870.
She is CLARA JANE Ennis, formerly Currey on Emily's Birth cert. Husband is Philip Ennis. Later on a Liverpool Census she is listed as Clara Ennis of Bristol, relationship to John Corless, the Head,.....Daughter !!
I have found the marriage in Liverpool in 1865, of a Philip Ennis and Jane A Currie.
Bit of a puzzler, or what?

Hope someone can help me trace Jane A / Clara Jane,

Regards,
              Steve

Do you have the marriage cert of the Philip Ennis / JAne A Currie?

I cannot find that marriage on FreeBMD (maybe not there and I havent looked on full indexes) but I did see a Philip Ennis marriage in 1865 in that area, but the ladies names on the page did not include any Jane or Clara Currie

I wonder if someone can check th eactual image of that 1881 census I gave to see if she is actually a widow.

There is the death of a Philip Ennis in West Derby reg area, in Jan/ feb/mar 1873 (born about 1843)

Hi, many thanks for the lightening response, you're a star 
No, I cannot find the marriage of Philip and Clara, but I am sending off for the marriage in 1865 in Walton, St. Mary,Liverpool, of Philip Ennis and Jane A Currie
I just hope it's Clara, but how will I know???

BFN,

Thats what I mean, the 1865 Liverpool mariage I found on FreeBMD didnt have a Jane (or Clara) Currie as one of the ladies! but, as I said, maybe you have found a different one from the FULL indexes.


The census when you found her as daughter - any chance you could post the full transcription of that? Which one was it? Perhaps spmeone can have a closer look at the image - it may say Currie, not Corless. Clarifying her father's name and occupation will help confirm if you get the right marriage cert.

Hi,
    the Census was the 1871, for Gilling Street, Municipal Ward of South Toxteth. Liverpool.

John Corless 62 (Head) Widower, is listed as "No Occupation", Born Lancaster.
 
Clara Ennis is 23 Married and "Daur", Born Bristol.
"Eleanor" Ennis is 2 "Niece" Born Liverpool.

Why is Emily now Eleanor? and why, if Clara is "Daur", is "Eleanor" not Granddaughter?

On Emily Caroline Ennis'  Birth Cert (1870) Beaufort Street, Toxteth Park.Liverpool,

Father, Philip Ennis is Steward of a Ship, so is probably away at Sea.

Clara Jane Ennis formerly Currey, Mother,


Can you make any sense of it?  'cause I can't 

BFN,
       Steve.

The census does say "Married" in 1881 - maybe he is at sea, as you suggested earlier?
