This is a continuation of a thread
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=847391.0 on the Montgomeryshire board, where it turns out my assumptions were wrong.
I'm hoping someone can help with this as I haven't been able to discover further details.
In the 1911 census, Elizabeth Lewis, widow,
50 [Edit:70], born Erith, Kent, is listed with 2 children living of 4 born alive, at 30 Coverdale Rd, Shepherds Bush, Middx, London.
In 1901 she was at 2 Lime Grove, Shepherds Bush, and 1891 at 1 Lime Grove. Both listed as a widow.
From the 1881 census I found her and John P Lewis (draughtsman, age 42, born London) living at 3 Caxton Rd, Hammersmith, Middx with three children. (It was Kate who died before 1911)
Her first marriage was on 27 Oct 1858 at St Martins in the Field, Middx, and the certificate states the groom was coffee shop keeper Richard Thomas of George Square, St Margaret, Westminster, Middx (father William Thomas, farmer) and that Elizabeth Mary Wake was of King St, St Margaret, Westminster, Middx (father Charles Wake, plumber) with witnesses Charles Henry Wake and Caroline Jane Wake (these were her parents). There are quite a few trade directory entries for Charles Wake in King St, plumber, and sometimes glazier.
I can't find Elizabeth Thomas in the 1861 census, nor in the 1871 census. Neither can I be sure which of the various Richard Thomas deaths are the right one.
I haven't found her second marriage either, which would probably be 1872 at the latest since I have found a birth for 1872 of Cheltenham Wake Lewis (he died 1878 and a later child born 1880 to this couple was given the same name). I did find a marriage of Thomas to John Purslow Lewis, but the wrong Thomas, so the wrong John P Lewis too. (Thanks to those on the Montgomeryshire board for sorting that out).
Can anyone help please?
Thanks.
