Hello All,
In trying to tie up some loose ends I have the following puzzle. Who and when did Laura Robson, nee Morgan marry after the death in 1891 of her first husband Robert Robson. The 1901 census records her as Laura Cox but I have been unable to find a Laura Robson/Morgan marriage to a Mr Cox. If anyone can spot it, I would be very grateful.
Thanks
Paul

Hello Glitter Baby,
Many thanks for the 1911 details. I had looked for her on it under the Cox surname but had come up with nothing.
Her age matches up well and so does the marriage details. I'll dig a little deeper.
Many thanks for your kind help.
Bye
Paul
