« on: Sunday 27 September 20 14:20 BST (UK) »
Hello, I have found Maggie Davies in the 1911 census married to Robert Thomas Davies
With there children Jenny Rose and Alfred there living in Peel Street
The dob 1883 is 2 years out for my Margaret Davies
I can find a marriage but it does not show the brides father, as Margaret has been my brick was for 25 years or so could any one help me establish if Maggie and My Margaret are the same people please there living at Peel street and this where her parents lived at one stage
Her fathers name was Daniel
Thank you

She was born 1885 parents Daniel and Emma Davies
I know everything about her I thought I had her in the 1911 census son married working for Isaac Morris in a butchers shop and it still could be her
It’s just that this looked interesting as I know that she had lived in Peel Street in the past because of census with her parents in 1891

Perhaps this is the family in 1911?

You said you have found a marriage but it doesn't show the bride's father.
Do you have the marriage certificate or the parish register entry? Is the relevant box just blank?

Do the witnesses names suggest they may be family members ? (difficult I know in Wales when the family name is Davies!)

For reference, this seems to be the 1911 entry for Margaret "Davies" working for Isaac Morris

No I just came across this in census,
And although the year of her birth is two years out Margaret (Maggie)
It was of interest to me because of the address I just thought I’d ask if anyone could find out if the father was Daniel but on family search I’ve just seen there is a wedding for Margaret Ann  Davies my Margaret didn’t have a middle name so maybe that rules that out
It was the address that interested  me

I’ve been on here many years looking for Margaret Davies and I h  as VE always thought  this was her in the 1911 census I’ve been able to go no further
When I saw Peel Street on the census for Maggie Davies I just wondered if I’ve been chasing the wrong Margaret I guess the only thing is for me to send for the certificate To put it to bed another wild goose chase I guess

Just found a birth for Margaret Ann and the parents don’t match
Thank you everyone
My Margaret  remains a mystery
