marriage details needed to confirm identity please
« on: Friday 18 December 20 08:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I wonder if anybody has access to the marriage details such as ages and father's names please for the following marriage.
December Quarter of 1892 Cardiff
Mary Elizabeth MOUNTAIN hopefully married to Herbert LAWRANCE.

Its Mary Elizabeth that I'm researching and she is proving very difficult. She was born January 1864. I've found her in 1871 and 1881 in Bristol but after that she is elusive. The marriage details, if correct, might help.
Many thanks.

Dec 1892 Cardiff 11a 594
LAWRANCE Herbert   
MOUNTAIN Mary Elizabeth   

Don’t the certs have at least father’s name and occupation?

I’m not sure what you are looking for.  :-\

You know when she was born and as you have her on the 1871 census you know who her folks are.

Haven't got the certificate. Only came across this yesterday and I know sometimes people have access to parish records, that I don't have. Just thought I'd ask just in case. I'm researching for somebody else so would need their permission for that anyway.

I'm trying to follow her life, so need to know where she was in subsequent censuses to complete the picture and find out when she died.

Where was she born and what were her parents’ names and mother’s maiden name?

Born in Bristol 21/1/1864.
Parents were Robert John Mountain and Ellen White who married 1860. They died and she and her siblings were taken into an orphanage in Bristol. After their release went their separate ways. In 1871 Mary Elizabeth was in the orphanage, by 1881 she was living with an aunt and then after that I'm getting lost with it.

The 1871 census in Bristol shows her as an orphan. On the assumption that she was a local girl there is a baptism on the 15th March 1865 at St. Judes, Bristol showing her parents as Ellen and Robert John Mountain.
