Helen Louise or Louisa Skiggs Marriage 1902 Greenwich
« on: Friday 05 December 14 20:13 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for any additional information on the above, there is a possibility that she married a Belfield but so far, I have only been able to find the marriage.

The reason i ask is that, in the 1911 census, my grandfather and grandmother (Alexander Walter Skiggs) and Alice Jane Skiggs, are shown at home with a Mabel Emma Belfield aged 6.

Numerous searches, have failed to find any information on Mabel but her D.O.B would be around c 1906.

Regards
Allan  :)

Mabel Bellfield is still with her grandparents James and Jane Skeggs at 37 Chipley St, Lewisham in 1927 (electoral roll).  Neither Jane nor Mabel is still listed in 1928-1930.

Alexander Walter and Alice Jane Skeggs are in the same street for many years, at no 23.

Have you identified Alexander's sisters as candidates for Mabel's mother?

I can see Jane Elizabeth born 1876.  Married Edward Laver in Rotherhithe, 1899. 

Also Emma Alice b 1885.  Has she been traced in adulthood post 1901? She may be the Emma Skeggs who witnessed Jane's marriage in 1899.
