George Brown and Annie Francis marriage
« on: Monday 15 March 21 10:43 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to find a marriage record for George Brown and Annie Francis/Frances (surname unknown). Please can you help?

George Brown (b. 25/3/1876 in Norbiton, London) is listed in the 1891 census at 551 Kings Road, Fulham, London with his parents & 5 siblings.

In 1897 George married Annie Francis (surname not found) who was born in London abt. 1876.

George and Annie had at least 3 children:

George William Brown (1899–1963)
Ellen Rose (or Nellie) Brown (1901–?)
Alfred Charles Brown (1905–?)

The 1901 census records George and Annie living at 7 Sotheron Road, Fulham, London and in 1911 at 121 Bath Road, Knowle, Bristol.

Thanks so much for finding this, really helpful.

Would it be possible to find the surname for George's mother, Mary, b. abt 1847. (his father - George William Brown, b. abt. 1849 in Dorking, Surrey.)?

His siblings were: Alfred (1874), Charles (1879), Thomas (1880), Jenny (1885), Frederick (1888), Harry (1892)

1871 census - George (a carpenter) and Mary Brown, Borough Road, St Peter, Surrey.
