marriage look up please completed ty

[GeoffE]

so what did you think ? 

Me?

I was hoping to find Ann's birthplace and age.

[Necromancer]

No, Anne63 - seemed to have missed my response .....   

shes twixt 30 and 34 so far

I don't know Newfster  if they married in 1831 they had two children before they got married but there is a bit of age gap between Mary 1828 and her sister who was born in 1831, so I have come to think that William was married twice first time in 1821 to a Ann and she died sometime between 1829 and 1830 then her remarried to another Ann in 1831 and William did not give his true age on the census.

[Necromancer]

certainly a possibility !

how about a Birth Cert of a post 1837 child to reveal her Maiden name ?

[lyn10]

It look like I will have to get one of her sister birth cert but that wont help to find out who Mary mum was tho if he did marry twice

[Necromancer]

well, wouldnt logic say that post 1831 kids had the 2nd wife as Mum ? - so if the Birth Cert matches the 2nd marriage - you have a good possibility that Mary's mum was the 1st one you conjectured - or am I losing it ? 

The 2 marriages - were the wives both named in full ?

[katherinem]

I don't know were Ann was in 1851 but William died in Jan 1851, I have only got my 2x great grandmother Mary on the 1861 census and onwards once she got married

Is it possible that this is your Mary, working as a servant in Balderton, Nottinghamshire (Ref H0107/2138, Folio 57, page 44).

No Newfster I think I am the one losing it at the moment It looks like I am going to have to search to see if he did marry twice or not.

Kath that could be my Mary

There is a death registration for a Ann Watkin in the same quarter (Jan-Mar 1851), as William Watkin, but a different registration district (Mansfield) - possibly your 3x g grandmother.

What was the name and year of birth of William and Ann's youngest child, will try and find them on the 1851.
