Thank you very much for your swift & helpful reply. 'My' Mary Ann Cole married George Sirkett in 1863. George Sirkett was born 1841, Somers Town, & died 1868, Camden Town. His widow Mary Ann did, I believe, marry Robert Beauchamp in 1872. Mary Ann & George had 3 daughters: Mary Ann, Georgina & Elizabeth. Georgina is my grandmother.

I certainly will consider your replies & yes I shall endeavour to get that marriage certificate. :-)

Could you give some dates please for Mary Ann Cole. if we can find her on census both single and married, we are more likely to be able to back track to her parents

EDIT in view of later post regarding Mary Ann's marriage, this is NOT correct. Will leave anyway.

Is this the 1911 you have for Mary Ann Cole, or is it a coincidence?

I would greatly appreciate more information on Elizabeth & James. I believe that they are possibly my g.g. grandparents. My great grandmother, Mary Ann Cole m George Sirkett. Their daughter Georgina is my grandmother. Mary Ann's parents were James & Elizabeth Cole, Limehouse, London. Georgina Sirkett m John Farrell, also of LOndon, sometimes living at Woolich. My father Dennis Farrell came out to NZ where I live. Gwenda (Farrell) Alloway.
