    1. [MDX] BOOKER/ANDREW
    2. A very long standing brick wall:- Looking for Elizabeth ANDREW and James BOOKER (James born 18 June 1834 St. Mary Newington, Bermondsey, Southwark, Middlesex) who married on 14th September 1864 St. Mary Magdalene, Burmondsey, Southwark, Middlesex. James listed as age 30 bachelor, Wine Cooper, Residence Burmondsey, father Edward Booker a Brewer. Elizabeth Andrew aged 33 widow, Residence Burmondsey father John Drew Colebrook Butcher. (John was actually deceased at the time of both her marriages) I have searched for many years, for them after their marriage, with no success, cannot find them on the 1871 census. Further details:- I am particularly following Elizabeth who was born Elizabeth Colebrook on 9th August 1831 in Great Bookham, Epsom, Surrey. She had an illigitimate daughter born 1851. I have her on all the census' with her family including her illigitimate daughter up until 1851. She married John Thomas Andrew in 1856, they are on the 1861 census with Elizabeth's illigitimate daughter being passed off as her sister. John died 1863 in Shoreditch,London,Middlesex. She then married James Booker as above. There were at least 5 deaths of James Booker's between 1864 and 1867 in London, plus others in the general area. Also a number of deaths for Elizabeth Booker. One may have died and the other remarried. Any help to solve this long standing puzzle would be much appreciated. Kind Regards, Norma Johnson in New Zealand
