William Moffatt Armstrong and Jane Ann Bell
« on: Tuesday 21 July 20 20:55 BST (UK) »
Can someone help please.

William Moffatt Armstrong and Jane Ann Bell married 21 Jan 1877 • Thornley (Near Tow-Law), Durham, England

I’m trying to trace their families, where they are on a previous census and when and where they were born and to whom, in particular William Moffatt Armstrong.

They emigrated to Australia prior to the 1881 census and had children there.

Thanks
Christian

Buying a copy of their marriage cert should give you fathers names
