	Can't see a marriage for Albania Arnold... or a death either There doesn't appear to be any other birth or marriage for an Albania S J ( or Albina ) The odds are it is the same person as the DOB matches. But I agree, buying the death cert is the only way forward, if only to eliminate her.

	Unless Terry buys the death cert we are not going to know either way

	But wasn't the birth of Albania Sarah J. Jay, 1877, Dover her?

	Have you read the original thread as the posting of that possible death was pure guesswork by me based purely on her christian name and year of birth. If she is the same person then she could have married a Prett or just lived with someone. Why do you think she was not married ? Have you found a birth for her as Prett ?

	May be better to rephrase your new question as Looking for the husband of Albania S J Prett. Albania Prett didn't marry anyone, she died as Prett

	Terry - when you post on an existing thread, it pushes the thread to the top of the board again. It's always best to continue with an existing thread if it is about the same family. Not only are duplicates against T&C, duplication also means that the same research is repeated - much to the irritiation of the members involved! ;-) When ever you log onto the site, check the 'My Threads' under the Tools heading to the right of this page - that way it's easy to find previous threads you've created or posted on, and to be able to see if new posts have been made.

Member Since: February 2013 Posts: 15 Send Message	Sorry to offend anyone, I'm new to all this, I thought if I posted on the previous thread no one would see it because it was a couple of days ago, wasn't trying to make a fool of anyone!!

	No way I only remembered it because I posted on it. Not sure how any member would have twigged it.

	Well the death was just a guess on my part and without buying the cert it would be impossible to say if she was Jay

	On previous thread Albania married Mr Arnold so presumably she re-married ... or maybe just took the surname of her new partner Don't you mean you are looking for a marriage for Albania TO Mr Prett ?
