Edward Smith
« on: Thursday 09 March 23 16:24 GMT (UK) »
Edward Smith married Sarah Wolfe 1857 Impington. They had five children, James 1857, Emma 1860, Eliza 1864, Charles 1869, and George 1871.

Charles married Fanny Clayton 1889, and Eliza married her brother, Alfred Charles Clayton in 1899.

Emma was living with Edward & Sarah in Impington 1901. Sarah died 1903 and Edward 1906.
James was living with Emily, 1911, Histon, record shows they were married 29 years and one child.
George last recorded in 1881, Histon, living with Edward & Sarah.

Can anyone see the marriage between James and Emily and their child.?

And what happened to Emma and George?

Have you looked for the birth on GRO online which will give the mmn & enable you to find the marriage.

Marriage cert is on Ancestry if you have access.  Confirms Edward Smith was James father

And what happened to Emma and George?

1. Emma appears on 1911/1921 census. An exact dob would be good to see if she is still around in 1939.

.............................................

2. George married at least twice. 1st wife Maud Bowers, 2nd wife Fanny Mary Freeman Kitteridge.

1911/21 census has George with Fanny and a 9/19 year old son from 1st marriage, Edward George Smith

I only have the bapt for Emma. 8th April 1860. Where was she in 1911/21. I use FindMyPast and don't have access to Ancestry unless I visit the library.

Thanks for looking.
