When did they get married ? ... she says she was only 25 in 1851 !!

that would make her 15 in '41 rounded down that makes her 10 !! 

Your man is a cradle snatcher !!

what was her maiden name .. do you know ?? 

[Cougar]

Haven't found the marriage either but first child born 1847  and died in 1862 in Tynemouth, ,  - 2nd born a couple of months after his father's death 12 Nov 1849.
She must have been around 20 when married.

Hmmmm - great minds think alike.
I've looked at that one a couple of times and wondered - except all other records from 1851 on to her death cert. etc. say Elizabeth.

Yes thanks Annie - you've done well though...........
He is one of mine -
Once Robert Dawson Whillance got to Oz, I have everything and every one - it is the going back to his grandparents etc. that I can't get anywhere with.
Thanks for this one though - will check and see that I have ALL that info.   
The Australian soldiers records have been digitised and are slowly but surely coming online (for free) which has been great.
Cheers Cougar
