Dear Pat,
Sorry if i havent responded had to go out to get some shopping. The first response was to the person tha asked if i had his birth certificate. Im truly grateful for all te help everyone has given me. I have heard of the surname Hoare before but didnt know how it fitted in, but with all of your help i now understand. Once again im sorry if i upset anyone.

Martin

Incase this is the missing William Watts marriage

William Mabin Watts 1886 mar qt Plymouth gro ref 5 b 481. He is the only one on the page with a different place of registration . The others are E Stonehouse

Caroline Hoare marriage was same qt but reg no 5b 441. I wonder if the original images were hard to read.

I have checked the image on freebmds and the number is hard to read

His birth
William Mabin Watts 1852 dec qt Marylebone 1a 334

His death
William M Watts 1928 dec qt Plymouth age 76 5b 325

Hi i was wondering could anyone find out where Margaret Kate Knight nee Hoare was in 1901. Been looking for ages but cannot find her anywhere.
Thanks
Martin Knight

Hi Martin I am not having much luck either finding her on the 1901 census.

Possibly in a work house, as daughter Elsie appears to be, so perhaps initials or wrong name or age recorded?
