Hi would I be correct in stating that Charlotte Foss dies March qtr 1910 Nottingham 7b 202 aged 27 and Walter Foss remarries a Lily Rhoades Dec qtr 1910 Nottingham 7b 833?

The parents of Walter look to be a Walter and Charlotte in 1881 Walter jnr is 5 months old in Radford, Nottinghamshire, the parents of Charlotte are George and Sarah Ann

Thomas Cragg married a Kate Musson in Sept qtr 1902 Nottingham 7b 546, Kate was married before to a Thomas Musson as Kate Smith in June qtr 1887 Nottingham 7b 436 in 1901 she is shown as a Widow aged 39 b Keyworth, Nottinghamshire Census Ref RG13/3203/46/10

It looks like Kate seemed to marry older men, as this is her in 1891:-

Thomas Musson 63 occ Ag Lab b Cotgrave, Notts
Kate 29 b Keyworth
Charlotte 6 Daughter in Law b Cotgrave
Residing at Cotgrave
Census Ref RG12/2718/71/22

Hi , I have Thomas Cragg in the 1911 census as 60 years and Kate at 49years old  so would only be 10 year s old in 1861 so i do not think this is the same Thomas terry

Hi Terry, a tiny difference of 1 year does not make the Thomas in 1861 a no no, as the 1901 Thomas is 50 with a mother Frances b in the same place as the 1861 Frances?
