PM from Pauline - please can you put replies on here? Type in box below and click 'submit'.

'Yes that is my Searle family thank you, Richard (senior) lost his 1st wife in childbirth, Mary J Searle is Mary Ann in the 1851 census and I have found her in the 1871 in Lambeth but after that she vanishes until in 1908 she is living in Mbro with Caroline and she is called Mary Rowland but I cant find a marriage for a Mary Searle and a Rowland so she must have married more than once, and I cannot find what happens to her sister Elizabeth Ann after 1851. '

How do you know she is Rowland in 1908?

Is this her maybe?

Just wondering if Mary Ann died and Mary J on census is another child? It was quite common to re-use names back then.
