Joseph Bills marriage to Jane Weaver

[Andyd71]

Hi Ray,

Thanks. I am Just starting off in tracing the family tree beginning with what little I remember from my nan. Muriel was her sister, but I don't know about the others children you found. I knew she was a Bills and her family hailed from the west mids, so maybe Wokverhampton. i don't think the dates and children on the one Steve found didn't make sense.  I may have misinterpreted it though.

Steve's posts are (at the moment) a different family

Do you have any of your grandmother's documents? (Birth or Marriage?)

Sadly, no. She married my grandad Henry James Duncan, it was her family I know very little about, except her maiden name Bills and The family hailing from the W Mids. I assumed work within the coal industry maybe brought them to South Wales, but that's just a guess. It certainly connects the two areas

I thought the 1891 with father James Bills Engine Driver may have been the right one.Ray why do you think it is wrong have I missed something?Joseph and Jane's children correct though?

Steve,

Thanks for so much info. I may have gone down a blind alley though.I expected the Joseph and Jane Weaver to have ended up living in South Wales where my nan was born (Amy Bills) in 1913 I think. They definitely married in Newport at Mainde. My nan said her family came from the W Mids so I may have put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

Thanks again

Andy Joseph and Jane did live in Maindee,27 Oakley Street at one time.
