Could somebody look up John Coe b 1859 St Osyth in the 1891 census please.

Found marriage entries Mar q 1886 Bethnal Green

John Coe
George Elliott
Minnie Macrow
Mary Soper

His wife could have been either Minnie or Mary. I am guessing that they would have been living around Bethnal Green area as were all his other siblings.
Then could you look up the other chap George Elliott and see if his wife is either the other Minnie or Mary just to clarify.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Sue

I'm not finding John with Mary or Minnie OR by himself on the 1891 nor the 1901 census records.

I did find a John Coe born St Osyth, but in 1862.
I checked the 1881 census to see if he could be yours with a different birth date (& wife Rebecca) BUT both John's were on the 1881 record

Looked too... can't see anything.

Looking for George Elliott is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

MACROW Minnie Maria Bethnal Green 1c 259
SOPER Mary Bethnal Green 1c 259



Minnie was born in 1866 in Bethnal Green........ I can't see her as Coe or Elliott, I would hazard a guess that John married Minnie as she is there in the 1871 and 1881 census............. just looking for Min* born 1866 +/- a few years born Bethnal Green doesn't bring her up on the 1891 or 1901 census.

Could they have left the country???

I thought it was John and Rebecca at first but their wedding was in Tendring district and I searched at the records office and it is not the same as John's father is a different one. He was still living at home in 1881. Is there a John and Minnie Coe in the 1901 census?

Thanks again

Choccy, I think you are right about John marrying Mary Soper if you found the marriage entry for George Elliott and Minnie Maria. Where did you find all the detailed info, as it could help me in the future. Many thanks for all your help.
