James & Caroline are living in Reading Road, Finchampstead in 1881 with five children, including a David born in Kingsclere in 1867. Caroline's age is given as 39 and she is born Kingsclere In 1891 Walter Seymour and Caroline are living at Plastow Green with the yougest of the Wilmot children (Stephen born about Mar 1881 in Finchampstead) and two Seymour children Louise 6 and Albert 3. Caroline is now 50 years old and Walter just 37. So sometime between 1881 and 1885, James Wilmot died and Caroline Wilmot (nee Girdler) re-married but where? No trace of the marriage in the St. Mary or St. Paul registers. I have been trying to get into the FreeBMD site for the past few hours with no success. So does anyone have details of James' death & Caroline's second marriage please? -- John Lewis <jayellatntlworlddotcom> from Bournemouth, Dorset, UK. using Debian GNU/Linux and GeneWeb genealogy software
