Hi Debbie,

am afraid i use Ancestry who don't have an address search....

BUT

the official 1901 census site does have an address search....... if you find out who is living there, i'll be able to get to it that way..... then i can view the original sheet & email it to you if you like.

Hi Jane,
Yes I have the marrige cert. of David william Smith & Sophia Hall 2/11/1885, both aged 19.
It say's David a skin dyer(a Carman when my nan was born)(a porter when my nan married) & it's just blank where his father's name should be.
Sophia's father is John William Hall a labourer.
Shouldn't David had someone's permission to marry being only 19?
Can I have the detail's of David as I think they must have been in workhouse as never been able to find them together.
It is Sophia I am fascinated with, she must have had her children with her even if they are in workhouse, Rosina my nan born 8/3/1889, don't know date's of sibling's but Mary Sophia,Elizabeth,Dolly,& a boy Sam.
Thank-you. Jackie.

I see some clever spelling of Loftus, to be honest I would never have found them it didnt occur to me to look at the different spelling of their names.

I thank you so much you are a treasure.

Births Dec 1906

Mary & Elizabeth are far too common to search, & i suspect Dolly is a nickname........



OOOOOOOHHHH INTERESTING!!!

1891

Dolly Smith abt 1886 Exeter, Devon, England Visitor Mile End Old Town London
Jos Smith abt 1839 Llangad, Scotland Head Mile End Old Town London
Rosine Smith abt 1847 Llangad, Scotland Wife Mile End Old Town London


so theres another Exeter connection...... AND another Rosina !!!!!!!

i don't think the David that i found is yours now, as he was born 1855, and as you have his marriage certificate, that gives his birthdate as 1866.......11yrs is too big a gap !!


i don't really know what to suggest now, do you have any more ideas, lol?

This is the only ref i can find for him before 1871,
won't be able to find Mary without a maiden name,

and as for Davids birth, ha, Griffiths is as bad as Jones or Evans in Wales !!!!
there are plenty to choose from on FreeBMD, so you'll have to take your pick !

Hi Jane,
I just do not know where Sophia could be in 1901 with her kid's as they are so young?
Yes I agree with the rest of the family, it make's sense.
I can only assume David has left her & she is in workhouse with children or some sort of church mission or something.
You have done wonder's, brilliant, thank-you so much. Jackie.
