Hi Ray: In your email you say they were married in 1865/6 but that they weren't born until 1869 & 1875. Would you please send corrected info to the List?

Hello Dumfries Thanks for all your prompt replies it was one of those senior moments on my part The wedding date should be 1895/6 My grandpa has been very illusive he was born 1869 not registered he was on the 1871 census he was then baptised in St Martin in the Bull Ring Birmingham in 1872 with his sister he was then on the 1881 census.Missing from the 1891 census he was on the 1901 with my Dad who was born 1900 . When the 1901 came out before it was on the internet I went to the Birmingham central library to look it up and found them but the printer wasn’t working so I waited till it was on the internet and they weren't there I e-mailed TNA and explained my dilemma they came back with the answer that they were mistranscribed as TEMPLE. The problem was my Grandpa’s writing.The same with the 1911 they are transcribed as SEMPLE .Where he was during those missing years and how he met my Grandma turned out they were on the stage .He was classed as an entertainer she a chorus girl and they ran away to Gretna to Marry.And now it turns out they can’t be found there either so my brick wall only gets thicker Thank you all again for your reply's best wishes Ray T Hi Ray: Marg in Alberta, Canada On Mon, Oct 31, 2011 at 1:52 PM, Ray Tempest <[email protected]> wrote: Hello all I 'me new to your list I did try a short while ago but think I must have got the address wrong I ’me looking for my grand parents marriage they were married at Gretna Green in about 1865/6 I did contact Scots Family a while back with no luck so I hope someone else may have more info they were Peter Charles TEMPEST born Birmingham 1869 she was Margaret THOMPSON born Maryport Cumberland 1875 I wait in hope Ray TEMPEST ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
