Elizabeth Ann HARROP

[David Hankey]

I am looking for any information on the above, birth date, parents etc.

I understand she was born about 1877, no exact date, and married WILLIAM JAMES WEBB in Newport, Monmouthshire on 12th August 1905 before possible emigration to USA.

Any details would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Do you have the marriage certificate,what was her fathers name and occupation?

[David Hankey]

No, Isobelruss, I don't. All I have is the sparse information I have given.

[Isobelruss]

Where did you get the marriage date from

[Hackstaple]

As you might know freeBMD has a great many woman of this name and of about that year of birth. Most marriages by the way took place with a much younger bride, your would have been 28 at marraige.

However, all of the woman were born in the northern counties and the information we have does not give us any way to tell who was whom.

[David Hankey]

From IGI index, Isobelruss.

Thanks for checking, Hackstaple.

PS. With apologies to the Moderator, I'll remember next time.

[Isobelruss]

Would she have had any children born in Newport?or anywhere else.

[Hackstaple]

freeBMD does not even show this marriage and I can't see any likely candidate even in the 1901 census. A mystery.

[David Hankey]

I haven't come across any children as yet.

That is a mystery, Hackstaple, I am at a loss.
