Whines and Shevatt

[Janice Jones]

I'm very much a beginner and struggling again
I have bought my Gt Grandfather's marriage cert. and have some confirmed information but I'm struggling to get further
Gt Grandfather Robert C A Whines (23) married Ellen Shevatt (24) in Islington on 3/10/1891 her father William Shevatt (builders labourer) was deceased & her address was 28 Sutterton St, Islington
1911 Census shows Ellen Shevatt (B: abt 1842) living with brother James Murphy (B: bat 1831) and Robert & Ellen Whines and children still at 28 Sutterton St.

I can't find a reference to William Shevatt and Ellen's marriage, or be sure of any census information on the family in-between

Can anyone help me stop going round in circles please!?

Can you include birthplaces for the people mentioned?  Ellen jnr & Robert were both born Islington as per 1901 entry but where were Ellen snr & James Murphy born?

If James Murphy is Ellen seniors brother then you are presumably looking for a Shevatt/Murphy marriage

From freebmd

There is a baptismal entry 29.11.1871 for a stillborn child - no christian name shown but mother was Ellen Shevatt - no father shown

The entry was for the Islington Workhouse

Sorry for lack of info.
Re 1911 Cencus, has both Ellen snr and James stating born in Islington
Yes Shevatt / Murphy marriage is what I deduced

Thanks

I had found several workhouse entries for Ellen Shevatt fitting the dates for mother and daughter but can't be sure if they are all referring to the same family.
