This Jessie in 1871 would appear to make the marriage fit: Elizabeth Miller abt 1870 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire Emma Miller abt 1826 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Wife Birmingham Warwickshire Henry Miller abt 1825 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Head Birmingham Warwickshire James Miller abt 1865 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Son Birmingham Warwickshire Jessie Miller abt 1860 Middlesex, London, England Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire Kate Miller abt 1858 Middlesex, London, England Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire Laura Miller abt 1856 Middlesex, London, England Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire Walter Miller abt 1853 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Son Birmingham Warwickshire

Liz that is very kind of you to go to that trouble, i will take a copy and start researching it, i really do appreciate that. kind regards Pat

Roy - RG12 is the 1891 not the 1881. Pat - given that the marriage is in Birmingham, and the names and dates fit, I'd say you've probably got a match. I'd go with it. Janice (not an expert but an optimist!)

so janice in your expert opinion would you say it is them, ps i dont know how you got on BMD it keeps saying server down for me. thank you for your assistance

Here they are in 1881. I think the freebmd marriage is very likely to be them. Charles H. Baker abt 1860 Stratford On Avon, Warwickshire, England Head Walsall Borough Staffordshire (Baker) Jessie Baker abt 1860 London, Middlesex, England Wife Walsall Borough Staffordshire John E. Baker abt 1880 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Son Walsall Borough Staffordshire Orlando Baker Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Son Walsall Borough Staffordshire (7 weeks) Surname First name(s) District Vol Page -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marriages Sep 1879 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Baker Charles Henry Birmingham 6d 99 CASH Thomas Birmingham 6d 99 LEWIS Sarah Birmingham 6d 99 MILLER Jessie Birmingham 6d 99

That makes the kids legit then lol!

what a plonker i am it is the 1891 census - a BIG sorry

Are you sure that is the 1881 census? That would make them born 1850-52, not 1860/61. Liz

Which census is that? The ages don't match up with the years in your original message. Janice

thank you janice i will take a look at it. kind regards pat

Well if it's them, they did the kids first!
