OR - she made a correct statement re children born to 'that marriage' as one was born before the marriage and the other did not have the husband stated as the father on the birth cert. SO, in fact there were no children born to that 'couple' ???

Hi maryb,

I don't have any further information about either Lillie or Harry unfortunately.

Very good point Dea - the marriage was in 1876, and Lillie was born in 1874/1875 according to her age on the 1881 and 1891 censuses. So she was born before the marriage.

Hi Mary,

That's intriguing, there could be a connection there.

Based on Roses unusual given name of Caporn, I was also looking at any Caporns in Coventry around that time, and had found William Pears Caporn (parents possibly William Caporn and Martha Pears?). However I hadn't got the street name. Upper Well Street and Well Street are close by each other.

Thanks for your posts on this thread :-)
