Lincolnshire Marriage?
« on: Sunday 16 August 15 20:43 BST (UK) »
Hi
On the 1891 census RG12/2612, F37 Gt. Grimsby,

Charles Mapleston aged 48 Head, ag. lab b. ?? Lincolnshire
Ethel Mapleston aged 21 wife, (could be 31? there is a line thro) b, Lincoln.

Trying to find out who the Ethel is and what happened to them. Cannot find on the 1881/1901 census Charles, or 1901 an Ethel age 31/41
Can find no record of any marriage or any  deaths.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated

This looks like his birth, so is his age incorrect on 1891 census?  (only birth showing in appropriate time frame)

Births June quarter  1839 
Charles Mapleston    Lincoln    14   423

The Charles Mapleston born about 1839 in Lincolnshire appears to be living in Lancashire in 1881, married to an Emma.
He also appears to die in 1884.

Deaths December quarter  1884 
Charles Mapleston age 45    Barton I.    8c   460

What is your connection to the Charles and Ethel in 1891 - what else do you know about them?

Thank-you

That Charles is also an accountant. There's an 1831 Charles married to Mary, but he also dies 1884.

I suspect , given the age difference, there is no marriage to find. However, finding out who Charles and Ethel were may be quite challenging with no other clues

Thankyou for your replies

Regarding a possible connection to Charles and Ethel - The Ethel I am trying to trace  is Ethel Blow b.1870 died 1922.

She was the daughter of Edward Collinson Blow and Jane Mapleston.

I have her on the 1881 census but nothing else until her death.

I could not find a marriage for her using variations of Blow, so I entered a random search for Ethel + birth date and county.

When I saw the entry for Ethel, age of 21 - if correct - on the 1891 census coupled with the surname of Mapleston [her mothers maiden name] I looked for a marriage, couldn't find any.  Tried picking them up on the 1901 and 1911 census'.  Found Charles the accountant, but that's about all.
