I am still waiting on the marriage certificate.
I have now ordered the childrens birth certificates as well......oh how slow is the Australian Govt depts !!!!!!!!!

Today at 3.15pm I received the birth certificates for the children of William Mott and Frances Denman.

One states fathers birthplace as "Westbridge England", the other states "Cambridgeshire England".
These certificates also clear up when the father died.  The father died 24th  Apr 1865 and his son was born 25 May 1865 in Australia....YEAH..I'm getting somewhere now !!
All this brings into line the info I had but couldnt place. 

Thankyou everyone who has had a go at deciphering this monstrousity..

HI Karon

Trouble is there isn't such a place as Westbridge,so I think we're bacak to Wisbech,said with a local accent to an Australian  he must have thought that's what was being said.

Isn't that sad,the baby being born a month after his father died 

Glad we're getting to the bottom of it now.

Hi

I live in Wisbech, and I dont think its Wisbech, even with the accent that they have round here

I have attached the section of William and Frances's son William Johns birth certificate that shows fathers birthplace. It also shows mothers birthplace.

Also the name of the church where the parents where married.

Take a look and see what you come up with.

This 1881 census piece states a Westbridge Cambridge birth as well    ??

I wonder if the Westbridge entry actually refers to a  bridge.

 Most of my family are from the Haddenham /Aldreth area and I've come across references to people being born at Aldreth High Bridge. My father who still lives in the area will sometimes refer to somebody living "down the fen by the third bridge" etc.

Well spotted JJ- there are quite a few in other censuses also born in Westbridge Cambridge 

Have tried to follow a few of them through the censuses but not had any more luck I'm afraid. I still think it might be Wisbech,but said with a local accent to someone not familiar with the spelling.

I may be wrong of course
