But it is possible that "our" Marriane was called after her.

Children I have are:-

Erskine b 1875
Amelia B b 1877
Alexander W b 1879
Elizabeth M b 1881
Marianne Hazel b 1882

I thought there could be another,possibly Frances,which would make

The eldest son is not on this list, I found him on a marriage notice in the Times, Capt. H, as the son of  late AWB, Maj-Sgn 78th. Same address as for the daughters marriage.  Just tracking him down....He married a Marjorie Shuttleworth of Sailsbury in August 1918. Marjories father is given as J Shuttleworh Rendell  JP, so her surname may be the full lot. PM

later...saw you figured henry in earlier posts, anyway, he did marry.....

He's in the post below it PM,Henry.Last few months of WWI,did he survive and did he stay in the English west country?

No obit, so I think he did, George. I found a potential only son and daughter, son died at 19, dau married, to a Major H Beveridge in Sailsbury. I can't link them directly, though. Henry and Marjorie got married in the Hague, according to the press cutting.


This one is really tricky!

So do you think this is her? Birth date seems right....

[Seoras]

I do PM,birthdate and location,will go see if I can find what she was doing 1n 1911.1901 she is still at home in Buckingham Terrace.I am thinking she didn't marry as she is travelling under her maiden name.

[Pastmagic]

Just a thought - could Hazel be "Hazell" - Scots surname?
See she is down as Maryanna in the 1901 Census...unles its a transcription error....
