George Gilbert Noble - Ellen Greene - Marriage
« on: Friday 14 August 15 08:39 BST (UK) »
Hello,

Im new to this site. iv been trying to do my own research via familysearch and the National Achieves.

Im trying to find a marriage certificate George Gilbert Noble and Ellen Greene.

they had from the death cert 6 children.
Dora Ellen
Mary Josephine
Jane Ruth
Charles Forrester
Robert Allen
George Gilbert

Id be ever so grateful for any assistance on any of these people :)

thanks in advance

Were all the children born in S Africa?  Any idea roughly when the eldest was born?

hi, all the children were born in Port Elizabeth but I don't know how old the eldest is for sure. the death cert doesn't give ages/births. George Gilbert was born in 1834 based on the death cert saying he was 80 years old when he died if that helps at all?

Sorry I don't have much more information :(

That's ok, so we're looking for a marriage some way back then if George was born 1834. 

I wonder if they were married in Scotland then emigrated?  Might be worth checking there if you haven't already.  Children may have been born in either country - or both!

The death certificate actually says they were married in PE it has a name but the handwriting is terribly hard to read.
