David
Thanks for your help I think there must be two Edward Rileys as I have him on the 1871 census he is married to Harriat living Babworth East Retford
I have him on the 81 & 91 with Hannah Ebbs and a son Albert Edward I know that's him as Albert was my husbands grandfather Its the marriage to Margaret I find confusing some one sent me this info about his 3 wives I think I will send for the marriage certs for Hannah & Harriet and hope it says his father was Thomas
Thanks again Christine

These two marriages are quite a way apart and it may not be the same Edward Riley.
I can't find an Edward with a Harriet or a Margaret in the 1871 census.
Marriages Mar 1865
Bunting Harriett Bakewell 7b 716
Riley Edward Bakewell 7b 716

Marriages Mar 1869
Barker Margaret E Retford 7b 25
RILEY Edward E Retford 7b 25

Is there any one who has this family

Edward Riley b1841c son of Thomas Riley & Jane Fells

I have been sent some info about Edward he married
Harriet Bunting in 1865 she died 1872
Margaret Barker in 1869 (but Harriet didnt die until 1872)
Hannah Ebbs in 1880

On bmd Harriet died age 22 Leicester Q1 7A 137 1872 there is also a baby same name and GRO No (think this may be her daughter)

If this is Edwards wife how did he marry Margaret in 1869 ?

I havent sent for any certs yet as I have just started on this branch
but now I am totally confused

Can any one help ?

I will answer any replies later as I have to go to work
Thank you Christine
