Re: Elizabeth Sophia Pitcher

In 1869 Julia Jane Paice was baptised, the daughter of George and Elizabeth Sophia.

George Paice married Elizabeth Sophia Pitcher, 1858, Islington. She died between 1874 and 1881.

She says her father is deceased in 1858 and Eli and Harriett Turvill were witnesses.

Re: Elizabeth Sophia Pitcher

I think you have a wrong or bigamous marriage to Jane Black. If you look at Roxwell in 1891, you find a sister in law Harriett Turvill living with Elizabeth Turvill, widow. Harriett is single, she's Eli's sister.. In 1881 she is a relative, with Jane Pitcher, a Widow living with her son in law Georg...

Strange occupation..

Looking through the registers of Whickham, Durham and got to the burials about 1783 and came across a new one on me..

I wonder if Mr Brown was a bit of a lad and liked a laugh, maybe his wife wasn't really dead..

1861 She's at Hamp St, Bridgwater servant for Joel French. His wife is from Quantoxhead so probably a relative of hers.

Re: PDF's from the GRO

I think there is a strange problem with the site at times. I get paper copies for my own line but PDFs for other peoples or near relatives. At times there isn't an option for the PDF. I've cancelled it and started again and it sometimes appears. When you work it out, 3 paper for £33 and 4 PDFs for £...

Re: Trying to get it right is driving me crazy!

You will find her as Atherley in 1901, Hatherleigh in 1891, parents William and Selina Wylie. Selina died around the time she gave birth to Selina Ada in 1884.

You are correct, he is from Burnt Island. You've found him. Well done.
