Hi,

Thanks for that additional information. It looks as if Frederick William wasn't related, or at least wasn't the brother of Herbert Durrant and Walter Percy...

Sorry, I'm not sure how you reach that conclusion as my first post gives you the 1881 census entry showing them all as brothers, plus Larkspur has found the relevant baptisms. 

Father changing his employment is not unusual. 

NC.

I thought that too NC........

I reached that conclusion based on their father's different jobs and the changes of address but, as you say, a change of employment isn't unusual.

Thanks again for your help.

When you found these wonderful marriages, did you by a chance, jot down the name of the father of Charles John Wilson and his occupation and also the names of the witnesses?

Jane Mary Snook/ Charles John Wilson Carrington 26-4-1893

I would love to know!!!

Very much looking forward to your reply!

Spiffy, Welcome to Rootschat.
 The marriages I entered do not have any further details than the place date and names of bride and groom, if anything else were to be found I would have put it down.
You would need to send for the marriage certificates, Sorry.

Hi Spiffy,

Welcome to Rootschat

I go into Nottingham Archives most weeks and can have a look at the marriage for you, maybe this Friday if not it will be next week if that's OK.
