Trying to find a marriage between George Henry Jones and Mary Ann Warrlow maybe around 1870/80

Hi, Have you any further details? For instance where they were married.

Looks familar - is this a duplicate thread?

Jones are two a penny,, please confirm that the spelling of brides surname is correct. what else do you know about them? children?

Spelling correct according to my grandmothers birth certificate in 1890. She was later adopted so know nothing of any siblings but she did mention a Pricey and Elizabeth. George Henry was a journeyman and that's all I know.

George Henry was a Journeyman what?? A journeyman is an Apprenticeship served master of his trade..................but what trade?

I think it may be Warrilow but it would help if we knew where!

Very sorry!! I am new to this game and if I had any clue as to where they were married I wouldn't be asking for help.

Where was your grandmother born in 1890 and do you have them on the 1891 census?

It's just an approx area people need to help finding the marriage because of the name Jones.

Message fro Margaret

Only know about definitely about one daughter born 1890 named Georgina. She was given up for adoption so she could have had several siblings one perhaps called Pricey and Elizabeth. In August 1890 they lived at 6 Glass Street Brickyard Shirehampton after that they seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth. My Grandma lived somewhere around Wolverhampton when she was adopted but I can't find any other info. George Henry was a Blacksmith & Journeyman so I suppose they could have moved anywhere.
Thanks

Could this be your Georgina

1871 Wolverhampton

So it would seem that John married Mary shortly after Mary Ann was born but she was registered under her mothers name

Well done Gillian. Just got home and come back to this and found him in Staffordshire but you had already posted. Margaret will be over the moon with the info you have found.

Thanks for the kind words Astra -sometimes you strike lucky!

No, apparantly she was just given away according to her stories they probably had lots of other kids and she was probably a bit of a handful. She was born 26th August .

Thanks, great news been looking for ages I need to get the hang of this!!!

There is a death in 1895 Jun Q Wolverhampton of Mary Ann Jones aged 38 6b 406
This fits for Georgina's mother and may be the reason she was adopted by the Foxes who had no children of their own
