1880 marriage look up please - Oakham Rutland
« on: Tuesday 31 March 15 14:37 BST (UK) »
Hi :)

I'm fairly sure I have a marriage for :-
Thomas Clowes 1859 born Onecote, Staffs (Leek registration)
Charlotte Tewson 1854 born Wing Rutland

Q4 1880 Oakham Rutland 7a 615

Could anyone with access to parish records from this area look up and see if anymore info exists on them to ascertain if this is my Thomas? e.g.Witnesses? From the parish of? etc

I also believe that they or more likely she had a child :-

Emma 1878 born Wing Rutland

Could anyone clarify this?

I'm trying to exhaust all possible avenues before I throw in the towel and get the marriage certificate. I'm a bit reluctant to do so as he is not on my direct line.

Thanks so much

Hi,

Cannot see a birth record for an Emma Clowes, however this is the birth record of an Emma Tewson -
Emma Tewson
q3 1877, Oakham, Rutland
Vol 7a Page 309

If the above is the Emma Clowes/Tewson you are looking for then it would that she was born before her mother's marriage to Thomas Clowes.

Thanks JJen :)

Much as I thought really!
 Charlotte was older than Thomas and I had thought Emma may have been illegitimate or from a previous marriage.

Does anyone have access to the Parish Records to look for a baptism and further info?
