Paul it is 8 years since Abby posted, so even if she is still a member she probably won't be looking at this now. Click on her name to send a message, if GR has her current email she will be notified.

If this is your Annie, Paul, I can't find her on censuses after marriage. No sign of the family in 1891, and in 1901, Thomas's marital status is given as "parted".

[EDIT: Deleted a wrong 1881 census.]


However, I can't see her birth in the Bristol area, nor can I find her(yet) in earlier censuses.

Ok - in light of the marriage details posted above by safc, (oops - and also AnnCardiff earlier, I now notice) ignore the 1881 census I posted above! [EDIT: now deleted.]

How about this one? This one's mother was Sophia, and one of her sisters was called Ada - therefore her daughter's name???.
Although - she would only have been about 16 when she married.

Good find re 1891, safc!

As mentioned before, Thomas is listed as "parted" on the 1901 image.

(I've deleted stupid incorrect burbling from this post!)

As she would have been about 16 when she married, I wonder if her age in 1911 census is a mistake, or if she'd always told Thomas she was 10 years older than she was?!
It was Thomas who filled in the 1911 form - perhaps he thought he was filling it in correctly.
