LOUISA JANE MORRIS b. 1876 Bridnorth in Lancaster in 1891

Re: 1911 alive Thomas MORRIS

- - - , father of Fanny Louisa MORRIS mmn DAYUS, servant, Chorlton 1891 - and quite possibly Alice E. MORRIS 1891, servant in Didsbury (sisters) - who is possibly my relative Alice ELLIS 1901 Stockport - - -

That is certainly another inconsistency with my relative's - Alice ELLIS (MORRIS) on census 1901 - 1898 Salford marriage certificate - has deceased for father (Frederick MORRIS, gardener, domestic).

The brother, Frederick, may well have been dead (have to recheck) - don't know what my relative Alice was thinking when she came to her 1891 marriage info. - if this dad (Thomas) is from the right family for my relative.  Can't get to the bottom of it satisfactorily.  Sorry. 

So to conclude 3 discrepancies with my Alice relative's 1893 marriage certificate and the Alice E. MORRIS mmn DAYUS 1891 (to be able to make the connection that they are the same person):

1. Her name Edith MORRIS - (instead of Alice Edith MORRIS which I consider a minor error)
2. Father's name - Frederick MORRIS (instead of Thomas)
3. Thomas MORRIS is alive up 1911 and not deceased (in 1898, if in fact he is my relative Alice ELLIS'S father).

Thanks for your update.

Another inconsistency with that marriage

If Edith (Alice) was described as a minor in 1898 she would have been born after 1877 not in 1874 as you think your Alice was

I think George William was a fairly common name.

The one in the 1911 ( without checking through for the post) with daughter  Eva was born in Shropshire (Salop) not Staffordshire - edit my incorrect info - image says Wolverhampton - apologies

Re: Marriage Certificate 1898, Salford

I'm trying to find out if my relative Alice (E.) ELLIS, b.1874, Wolverhampton 1901 is the the Alice E. MORRIS, b. 1874, Bridnorth, servant in Didsbury 1891.

1.My relative 1901 Alice was of full age on her marriage certificate 1898. - sorry for any confusion.

2.My relative 1901 Alice's husband George William ELLIS, b. 1872, Leeds, Block Cutter is confirmed with his family all through the 19th century - father, location and occupation correspond correctly on the 1898 marriage certificate (I have a copy). 

3.My relative 1901 Alice was born in 1874, which the death certificate confirms (I have a copy). 

4.In 1911 my relative Alice is with her family - husband and 7 of their 8 living children.  They lived in Stockport, which is not far from Didsbury. 

5. I've research both my relative 1901 Alice E. MORRIS and the 1891 Alice E. MORRIS as far as I'm able to, and the main inconsistency is that the father of the 1901 Alice appears to be Frederick MORRIS and the father of the 1891 Alice appears to be Thomas MORRIS.

Thank you for your help.

sorry - I have edited my post about Alice born Shropshire. I must have been looking at the wrong record. I was confused though when you posted 'Edith - minor'

Thank you for the MORRIS family updates.  I will review all the responses.

In order to focus the many marvelous responses, here is a short recap: I am trying to connect my relative Alice (E.) ELLIS (MORRIS) b. 1974, Wolverhampton 1901 in living in Stockport with whom she is (her entry) on the 1891 census (and hence her family history).

I have researched my relative Alice (E.) ELLIS 1901 extensively (I have lots of info.).

I have also researched an Alice E. MORRIS b. 1874, Bridnorth, servant Didsbury, on the 1891 as being possibly my relative on the 1891 (Alice E. ELLIS 1901). Again, I have lots of info.

However, I have not been able to make a definitive connection between the two census entries - Alice (E.) ELLIS (MORRIS) on the 1901 and Alice E. MORRIS mmn DAYUS on the 1891 (to be able to confirm the two census entries as referring to the same person).  The DNA match is supposedly 99.9%.

Thanks again everyone May 15, 2021.

Looking for the street that Alice E. Morris, mmn Dayus, age 17, born Bridgnorth, Shropshire was living in on the 1891 census as a servant in Didsbury, Manchester.

Thank you.
