Deb my gut instinct is that this is not the couple who married in 1898. Just can't think why they would have gone from Liverpool to Salford to marry & then went back to Liverpool.

This looks like the same couple from 1901. So, possibly living as husband and wife before marrying in 1898.

The name Hannah is quite often shortened to Ann:

Deb:)

A quick summing up:

We've found 2 JJ's who appear in 1891 and 1901 census.

We've only found one birth, the above mentioned for Slack.

What we need to find is a birth for JJ Meredith or possibly Weston.................and that's where we come unstuck.



Deb:)

jj slack croydon 2a 229 march 1884

There's nothing coming up for Surrey or Lancs. His birth has to be somewhere!



Deb:)

Well im totally confused now, di other grandaughter is about to join in an have a look. sue

Hi Susan,

Lol...................that birth date fits JJ Slack's perfectly!


I'm just going through births now to see what I can find.



Deb:)

Hmmmm....................this 1901 entry fits with the 1898 marriage but not with the 61 census for Jane and Annie.
