Annie Isabel MORRIS - married 1912 Exeter

[deb usa]

Hi everyone ...it's me 

Okay I have found people all over for everyone ...now it's me that's a little stumped!  I have traced lots of my family usually through the male line  but today I received a marriage cert.

Okay .... this is it ... and please don't search the Middletons as I have their stuff.


William Skinner Middleton = Annie Isabel Morris
6 feb 1912, exeter.
witnesses: James Middleton ...William's dad
Aubrey R Foote ,,,have no clue who he/she is

William Skinner is an accountant and b 1872 1882...he died 29 Mar 1818 , France ! ( 7th battalion , SLI)
Annie Isabel is 26, spinster living Red Cow village (as was William Skinner Middleton), her dad was George Morris a gardener. ( she later remarried)

This is my problem .... My granddad , William George Middleton was born 1908 ...registered in Berkshire , Reading by his mother ...
Mother= Annie Isobel Morris
father= William Skinner Middleton

so they had him 4 years before they married . William Skinner Middleton was not deployed anywhere as far as I know. I have no idea where Annie Isabel Morris was born as I cannot find a birth circa 1876 1886 ...there are 2 possibles but not circa 1876 in Devon/ Somerset/ Berkshire...

I have searched 1881 for an Annie Isobel Morris with dad , George in Devon/Somerset/Berkshire ... no luck

am I just missing it ... ??

I am going nuts ...please help LOL

Hi Deb first thing to cross my mind is married in 1912 aged 26 - Annie Isabel MORRIS was born about 1886 not 1876............Kris

Hi Deb!

Have you looked for Middleton's service record for any insight?  I'm afraid that is about all I have to offer since I don't have access to UK sources.

I guess I would look on 1891 & 1901 UK census for any Ann* Morris with father George who was a gardner.

Luck!

Aubrey Foote was the son of Albert and Fanny, aged 2, in Exeter in 1881. Albert FOOTE married Fanny S CURME, Sep qtr 1866, Bridport. They were both from Dorset according to 1881. He may have just been the best man, and not necessarily related. Albert FOOTE was an accountant, and its possible Aubrey was as well, and worked with William MIDDLETON

Thanks for all the replies ...

Kris ...duhhhh ..... Thanks for the correction on dates ... Annie and William skinner were born ten years later than what I said....

William Skinner Middleton - 1882, b Teignmouth Devon
Annie Isabel Morris = 1886, where was she born , maybe Berkshire, Reading where she registered he son...

This is the info on WILLIAM S MIDDLETON
7th Bat, somerset light Infantry
Enlisted ...Chard Somerset
# 26020
PRIVATE
cOMMERORATED : POZIERES MEMORIAL

all we have from him is the 'death penny' and this info ...surely there should be more ...like his service record . Have written to SLI, they have nothing more to offer....

Hi Annie

I have absolutely no clue .... Is this insane or what ??

I have no idea where she was born....On the marriage cert ...there is nothing re; George, her dad , except that he was a gardener. It does not state deceased .

Is this nuts or what ...?
