thanks to Londonbelle and also Rambling Rose but regarding death of John Biddle 1901 age 30 I am wondering if this is him for approx. 3 years out on age. Coincidence is that I found a death for Elizabeth(mother) also 1901. Will search further if any children to John and wife Anne.

I'm wondering whether this is John Edward's Baptism..... the surname on the image is Biddulph (perhaps that is how the Vicar heard the surname Biddle) but interestingly the address is County Road and Joseph's occ is a Porter the same as that on the 1871 Census for Joseph

First name(s) John Edward
Last name Biddulph
Baptism year 1868
Baptism date 07 Jun 1868
Baptism place Stafford, Christ Church
Denomination Anglican
Father's first name(s) Joseph
Father's Occupation: Porter
Mother's first name(s) Elizabeth
Address: County Road

is it possible that Elizabeth married again? She was still only about 40 in 1881.

Could she have married under her maiden name??

from freebmd .............

Marriages Dec 1889 (>99%)
Blower Arthur Wellington, Sh. 6a 1531
Griffiths John Henry Wellington Sh. 6a 1531
PARKES Martha Wellington Sal 6a 1531
Rowley Elizabeth Wellington, Sh. 6a 1531

Wellington is the Registration District that includes Newport



EDIT:- NO NO

A Public Family Tree has John Henry Griffiths married to Elizabeth Rowley ....... b. Oct 1870, Wellington, parents John Rowley and Louisa Crump.

believe correct in Elizabeth marrying Joseph Biddle in 1866 in Staffordshire and also correct later living in Newport Shropshire with her son John Edward Biddle. But still trying to ascertain what happened to Elizabeth and John Edward after 1891. Not to sure if jOhn wed in 1891 to an ann bagnall in penkridge.
