Find Ancestors

unfortunatly I have very little information on my great gran, but i am hoping that someone could help.
She was called Annie Easton and married Robert Chapman. their only son was called rochester chapman, who was born in august 1941.
Annie's father was possibly called Rochester Cook Easton.
Both my great grandparents came from big families

Do you have a location? You could do with their marriage cert.

I think Marina is actually Melvena from the original

and Annie's birth

Annie Easten
Mother's Maiden Surname: Smith

Other children born after 1911all Mother's maiden name Smith

Georgina Easten 1912 Jan-Feb-Mar Durham
Mary Easten 1913 Apr-May-Jun Durham
Rochester Easten 1915 Jan-Feb-Mar Durham

As they had a child called Mary in 1898 and another in 1913 it would be logical to assume that it was the original Mary who was the child they lost

1901 This is very confusing. He married in 1897 under the name of Easten and yet he appears on the census as Cooke.
