Fitzsimmons & Masterman

[aidansrest]

Hi

Can anybody trace the birth of Ann Masterman and her marriage to Henry Fitzsimmons?

She was born in Washington around 1860, daughter of George Masterman and Mary Ann Malcolm.

She 'married' Henry Fitzsimmons around 1878, possibly in Haswell, County Durham.

Although I cannot find any trace of the marriage, from her children's birth regisrations I have confirmed her maiden name as 'Masterman', and have found her with her parents in 1861, she was working away from home in 1871, and married by 1881.

Help!

Sue

Hmmm - a possibility?

Marriage, December qtr 1878
Durham Registration District     vol 10a, page 409

Masterman, Ann
+ and, on the same page +
Summerson, Henry
Dobson, George

Ann would have been a minor - maybe names were changed because of that?

Are these children of theirs?

If I’m looking at the correct 1861 census, then you are correct, Cathy.
