[CaroleW]

Just checked the IGI which has the marriage - no father shown for her

Fanny Elizabeth Stocks    Spouse:  Benjamin Peet  father John Peet
Marriage:  25 NOV 1879   St Swithen, Lincoln 

[Eilleen]

  The 1861 census with 3 mth old
Fanny Elizabeth Stocks,  get's registered as Fanny Elizabeth Cunnington in Dec 1880 , Lincoln.
her mum  Sarah Ann Stocks married William Cunnington 14 yrs later    I'm consused , as usual .

  Please do not get cross with me, 

 Going back to my first question,
 is there no sight of her in 1871 census 
before she marries Benjamin Peet in 1879.

No - her birth is registered as Fanny Elizabeth Cunnington Stocks so she has been given Cunnington as a christian name - not as a surname

Perhaps her father was William Cunnington and perhaps he was already married at the time Fanny was born so was unable to marry Sarah until his wife died ??

Have you checked the 1861/71 for William Cunnington

[CaroleW]

The 1881 for Tealby has

William Cunnington 45 b Edenham - Police constable
Sarah A 47 b Pinchbeck
Jemima A 8 niece b Spalding
RG11/3282/ 71/5

The marriage was in 1874 but the Sarah above should only be around 41 as she was 21 in 1861

  Thats novel,   if they are related to Fanny Elizabeth Peet ( nee Stocks )

          Fanny was up in court in Lincoln in 1880 , heavy with child,
              and accussed of stealing,

Have you checked the 1861/71 for William Cunnington

He was a copper in 1861, single in Lissington

and in 1871 (with Sarah Ann 36) in Osgodby.  Now was she from Pinchbeck or Lincoln - or were there two of them too?

Re: 1871 - that could be the September 1861 marriage to Sarah A Reese in Spalding

  So no sign of a Fanny Stocks aged abt 15yrs, born in Lincoln.

  in the 1871 census
