George Potter who did he marry
« on: Monday 22 October 18 09:45 BST (UK) »
George Potter was born October 1849 Kelvedon Essex England, several trees on ancestry have him moving to Renfrewshire Scotland and marrying a Mary Jane Freeman.
They show his death as 23 May 1932 in Renfrewshire.

He had a brother Daniel born 1856 who married a Catherine Jane ? and died 1906 in Renfrewshire.

Is any of this true? Any assistance much appreciated

This is confusing, 1861 census.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M7HK-SD1

I can’t see those in my last post on a census.

Got it, and I think Mary on the census is Henry Jnr.

1851 census: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGVC-XB9

1871 census: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VFFB-KRD and https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KDZT-2NG

Whilst the death registrations are on SP at Port Glasgow, Renfrewshire.

Mary Jane Potter 54 – 1912 & George Henry Potter 77 (born 1855)? 1932

They are there on the 1901 & 1911 census but not in Scotland earlier.

I cannot find any marriage in the UK.

Clarke, Trickett, Orton, Lawless, Norton, Detheridge, Kirby, Goodfellow, Wagstaff, Lowe, etc.

I note that three trees on A....y have him married in Ireland in 1872.

Family Search note two marriages that year, no date, no bride?

One of the trees states marriage was 7/12/1872 Coleraine, Londonderry, N.I. to Mary Jane Freeman.   Since she was Irish and children born Ireland seems correct.

Marriage index on Ancestry and they are 2 of the 6 people shown.
