Thomas SAUNDERS & Fanny Louisa MORRIS Marriage Certificate, Chorlton, Manchester

[Lesleyperry]

Looking for evidence of the marriage certificate of Thomas SAUNDERS and (Fanny) Louisa nee MORRIS, b1876, Bridnorth.  Father: Thomas MORRIS, Gardener.

1891 (Fanny) Louisa MORRIS, 15, in Chorlton as a servant.

1901 (Fanny) Louisa SAUNDERS, 23, b. Bewdley, Staffs w/Thomas SAUNDERS 23, b. Bath, 2 children: Eleanor b.1898 and Glydys b. 1899 - Ardwick, Manchester.

1911 (Fanny) Louisa now EDWARDS does not appear w/Thomas SAUNDERS.  (Fanny) Louisa will be (re)married in 1913 to George EDWARDS.  Using EDWARDS although not technically remarried yet.

(Fanny) Louisa nee MORRIS is listed as a (Fanny) Louisa SAUNDERS, widow, for her 1913 marriage, St. Aiden, Bradford.

More information about this post is in my post of the other day with the title: LOUISA JANE MORRIS, b. 1876, Brignorth ("Jane" name was incorrect - there are variations of her birth place all near Bridnorth) - 2:44.

Thank you.

Do you mean the certificate itself or evidence of a marriage?

If the certificate itself you will need to order a copy but can't see a marriage between them.

I meant evidence of a marriage (I have edited my post).

Thanks for looking at the records - it is looking less likely that there was a marriage then.

Purchase of the birth certificate for Gladys may possibly help.  MMN given as Morris.

Re: Gladys SAUNDERS b. 1899 Manchester

Not sure whom daughter Gladys married at the moment. 

I do have information on sister Nellie Eleanor's marriage which confirms dad Thomas SAUNDERS, Carter.

Also, I have info. on mother's later marriage at St. Aidens, Bradbury, Fanny Louisa SAUNDERS, widow nee MORRIS mmn DAYUS in 1913 to George EDWARDS.

(Fanny) Louisa SAUNDERS w/Thomas SAUNDERS on the 1901 Ardwick, Manchester).
 

Thanks again,

A thought - and it has happened in my family.  Birth registrations state the mother's maiden name, BUT if the mother had been widowed then the marriage would be in the widow's surname rather than her actual maiden name. 

There is a marriage - Isle of Wight - September quarter 1896 - where Thomas Saunders and Fanny Louisa WYATT appear on the same page.

Not sure - 1901 gives her age as 23.  I'd definitely be purchasing one of the children's birth certificates to see what it has to say!! 

[Lesleyperry]

The marriage certificate evidence I'm looking for has the maiden name (Fanny) Louisa MORRIS and her husband's name Thomas SAUNDERS, father of her children on the 1901.

Thomas SAUNDERS b. 1876 Bath, probably died between 1908 and 1910 (child born/died in 1907 and Thomas does not appear with Louisa on the 1911 censuses.

Yes, purchasing certificates is necessary in the end.

Best wishes,

Thomas does not appear with Louisa on the 1911 censuses.

Does she claim to be widowed?  It's funny she didn't marry till 1913 if Thomas had already died - do you have a death record for Thomas?

There aren't any Thomas Saunders deaths (in Lancs) between 1908 & 1911 census.
