Nick, I think some of the problem has already been solved but you seem reluctant to accept it. Buying the 1908 marriage certificate will only prove what FreeBMD tells us, that Christopher Wilson married Augusta Tidsall. Even if it give parents, Mike has already shown that they are Henry & Mary Tidsall. And the death certificate will no doubt say the same. If, as I've suggested, they lived together for 25 years without marrying, then nothing can prove that except perhaps the birth certificate of Amy or other children. As for Martha, we know from both 1881 census and 1872 christening on IGI that she is the daughter of Henry Rouse the gamekeeper and Mary. What you do not know it the connection between Martha Rouse and either Christopher Wilson or Augusta Tidsall. To establish that you need to find both Christopher and Augusta in every earlier census and see if they had a brother or sister who married a Rouse or a Tidsall or Wilson, or even a sibling of Martha's mother. That's a bit of work. But it's not for others to do. Peter
Mike, Thanks for your efforts. But it's really up to Nick to do the follow up. I'm a semi-professional researcher. While I'm happy to offer suggestions, I'd expect a fee for research that extends beyond an hour or so. Peter
Hi Nicholas Shame you did not put your question last week. Last Friday,Saturday and Sunday there was a three day history event in Beoley church in which I as part of the Bromsgrove BMSGH was giving genealogical advice. On the Saturday the Worcestershire County Records Office was there with the original parish registers.

Nick (Gus & Mike), When Mike replied with the 1908 marriage, I thought you must have made an error in your posting. But I've just been able to see the census image. The strange thing is that Augusta is shown as born in Stratford on Avon, whereas Martha, her supposed sister, is born in Beoley, and all other siblings in Northfield. I've seen the term "sister in law" frequently mis-applied. We now take it to mean husband or wife's sister, but in times gone by, it really meant "sister at law" or step-sister. I wonder if this might be the case? I'm also thinking they may not have been married and only tied the knot in 1908 as Mike found. I see there was a daughter Amy aged 3 in 1891 census. It may be worthwhile obtaining her birth certificate to see if Christopher is listed as the father. But to determine the exact relationship of Martha, Nick will have to go back and trace both Christopher and Augusta in 1881 and 1871 census and see who the resided with. It could be that Christopher had married a sister of Martha who has since died (perhaps giving birth to Amy). You'd need to check all possible scenarios. Peter in Sydney

Nicholas, I would have thought it easier to look for a marriage for Christopher Wilson and Augusta. Or check 1881 census for Martha born c1872 in Beoley. However both those methods failed. Luckily, using the Hugh Wallis site, Beoley christening batch C041131 goes right to 1875. And the only Martha between 1870-1880 is Martha Rouse christened 1872 to Henry Rouse & Mary. In 1881, Henry is a gamekeeper in Alvechurch. All the children are shown as born at Northfield. However, I can't find christenings records for Augusta or some of the other children. You'd possibly need to look at 1871 to find Augusta. Peter in Sydney
Hi Peter In 1871 Augusta Tidsall is with her parents Henry(cabinet maker) & Mary Tidsall in Wooton Wawen age 7 born Stratford on Avon with her siblings In 1881 the same place parents etc. In 1881 Martha Rouse is with her parents Henry(gamekeeper) & Mary Rouse age 9 born Beoley with her siblings. I can't see any relationship between the two.

Peter, Gus and Mike, Thank you for all for taking an interest in my question. This particular point has been nagging me for years and as one of you has suggested I should really get hold of Augusta Ada's marriage or death certificate in order to learn her maiden name. A few pounds = Problem solved I am still puzzled by Martha's surname in the 1891 census and though Rouse seems tobe the most likely choice the first letter looks very much like a B. The census taker seemed to use a very simple style for writing his capital Rs on the same page of the census. Long ago when I first started my search, I had thought she fitted in best as a daughter of Henry and Mary Rouse, but I am now not too sure. There is an Andrew Whitworth on Ancestry who is also following Martha, but he has nothing beyond the 1881 census. I have dropped him a line to find out if he knows anything more about her. I think the fact that the place of birth is quite different to the Beoley one, may be in the end I'll find we have two differrent women .. Originally when I posed my question I was hoping to hear from someone who had access to the Beoley parish records. The village is tiny and there could not have been very many baptism celebrated during that two year period. with thanks, Nick On Wed, Oct 6, 2010 at 7:06 AM, Peter Booth <pbo08596@bigpond.net.au> wrote: > Nick (Gus & Mike), > > When Mike replied with the 1908 marriage, I thought you must have made > an error in your posting.

Hi Martha Rouse born 1872 in Beoley In the 1881 census she is with her parents in Alvechurch (next to Beoley) and her father is a gamekeeper. In the 1871 census her family is in a Keepers Cottage in Northfield I think she marries as Martha Sophia Rouse in q3 1892 in Lambeth to Thomas Henry Dixon Mike in Droitwich nicholas wilson wrote: > Hello, > > I need help from some kind person who has access to the above records.

Hello Nick, I can only assume from thewording of your enquiry that you are really trying to find Christopher and Augusta's marriage in order to discover her true full names and birthplace - and FreeBMD is no help on that one :-( Since the accuracy of the birthplaces given in the 1891 is less than accurate - both Beoley & Hall Green then being in WOR - I would also have doubts concerning Augusta's forenames, age and birthplace... A search of FreeBMDs births for "Augusta" born "Warwickshire" 1858-1867 produces no Augusta Adas - but 3 Ada Augustas: 1860 Sep Q - Lutterworth - NEWTON 1865 Jun Q - Hinckley - COOPER 1865 Dec Q - Alcester - LEACH of which only the last is anywhere near Stratford - and none seem even close to whatever Martha's surname may be... But perhaps their mother [re]married between their births. Your probable best bet would seem to buy the birth certificate of what was apparently the only child the marriage - Ada Maud WILSON, registered in Solihull District in 1887 Dec Q, ref 6d 543 - and from that to have a reasonable chance of finding Augusta in the1881...

Is has been very difficult to verify this... Appreciate any help Eleanore USA
Hello, I need help from some kind person who has access to the above records. I have a relative, eighteen year old Martha, who was staying with her sister and brother in law in the 1891 census. The head of of the family was Christopher Wilson, born Highgate, Middx in 1859 and their address 27 Milkwood Road, Lambeth, South London. My problem is I cannot decipher Martha's surname. It could be Bowne or Rouse or anything in between, I have tried all sorts of different combinations but with no success. I need someone to check the original parish records for this period, i.e. 1872-1873 to see if there is a Martha ?? shown. My interest is her sister, Augusta Ada, who was born in Stratford-upon-Avon and was my great uncle Christopher's wife. Many thanks, Nick Nick
Hi John Thank you for posting that wonderfully helpful and detailed description of the parish of Mathon and its changes. However West Malvern was actually transferred to the Worcestershire Registration County in 1897 - the Registration District of Upton on Servern, later known as Malvern. Before that it was in Bromyard RD, along with Mathon and Cradley. Full details can be found under the lists of RDs on GENUKI Kind regards Polly who spent 3 years helping to index all the registers in the Bromyard Register Office! ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Sands" <ejohnsands@yahoo.co.uk> To: <eng-worcester@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2010 10:04 AM Subject: [WOR] JAMES EAGLES David As to the Civil Parish: the Worcestershire part of Mathon, now known as West Malvern, forms a parish on the west side of the Malvern Hills.
