Thank evans she stayed born in the same place on census!

Hmm,it would seem that mary ann legassicks mothers name is not elizabeth as per the 1871 census but Eliza as per the 1861 census,which I will let you find.
********************************************

But here is her parents marriage

Marriages Sep 1846 (>99%)
Legassick William St Giles 1 92
Rudd Eliza St Giles &c 1 92

The district St Giles &c is an alternative name for St Giles and it spans the boundaries of the counties of London and Middlesex.

Strange that some have" &c" after the St giles and some dont.

If you ever send for that I would only put the name" willam legassick "on the order form I think in case I have picked the wrong bride,but it is the only eliza on the page,although there are 7 women on the page and only 4 men.

Also on the same page as that marriage is a Miriam Legassick marrying someone.

A double wedding maybe?

It has to be william legassicks marriage though as all the others at the right time are in portsmouth or elsewhere.

Must be the Rudd woman that he married as here she is in St giles in 1841{I think}
And born out of the parish it says
she was born in norfolk on all later census with william legassick her hubby.

Hope you finished your gate and watered the plants?????

OK I take back my thoughts on the majority of Men in my life,
They worm their way in ,get what they were after, and then do a runner.
Which you did upon saying you were off for a cuppa.

Being the x wife of 3 husbands,sister of 4 brothers ,mother to 3 sons and grannyviv to 2 grandsons I think I have a diploma in the male species now.

Maybe ,just maybe, there is the odd exception to the rule.

Hiya Viv,well here we go:Charles white + Agnes collins,married on the 21/12/1855 in the strand,Charles,s father was a John white occ:carpenter(deceased).Agnes,s father was a James collins occ: painter(deceased).George frederick watson + Edith alice seaton,married on the 20/5/1913 in Wandsworth.George,s father was a Alfred john watson occ:house painter(journeyman) Ediths father was a Phillip henry seaton occ:carman.Certs just arrived i will start looking into them a.s.a.p.bye for now........the pest

Pesky.
When you give info over next time would it be possible for you to divide up the families with your ENTER bar please.

Got john snr as house painter,born Plimlico.
Lucy born in Stamford Norfolk.
Thanks for the tip..the pest

Brilliant,fantastico!
So much easier to read ,what old boy?

Off to search them watsons out ,on 1911 with the magic trick.

I cant find Agnes in 1841 with daddy though ,so she MUST still be in Ireland.
I will search some Irish records on her later.

Vivienne,could Mary and Caroline have been twins?(both aged 15).....the (thick)...pest

1911

HOUSEHOLD WATSON ALFRED JOHN M 1860 51 Wandsworth London

He is born in pimlico,so we know thats dad.
No Lucy with him though,so maybe she has joined the Legassick woman??

Been called away,back in an hour to try and find the others if you haven,t.

Do you mean the White kids??
No ,because on 1841 census the ages of a lot of them are rounded off and I have seen 3/4 kids with the same age on some 1841census.
But saying that,of course they MAY be.

Possible for Phillip henry seatons parents:
1871 census.address no 8. mill street,hanover square,london.
