Could anyone help me with the problems below? They all centre around my greatx4 grandfather, Nathaniel Marsh.
Here he is in the 1861 census:
Nathaniel Marsh; 49; Sawyer; b. Throwley, Kent
Emma H; 39; b. Bethnal Green, Middlesex
Harriett A Marsh; 3; b. Wingham, Kent
Mary Marsh; 1; b. Wingham, Kent
Pg. no: 17
Reg. no: RG09
Folio: 51
And the 1871:
Nathaniel Marsh; 60; Ag. Lab; b. Throwley, Kent
Emma Marsh; 45; b. London
Harriet Marsh; 13; Wingham, Kent
Llewellyn Marsh; 6; b. Wingham, Kent
Pg. no: 7
Reg. no: RG10
Folio: 52
I think I have him in the 1851:
Susanah Marsh; 72; Head; Pauper; b. Wingham, Kent
Nathaniel Marsh; 40; Lodger; Sawyer; b. Throwley, Kent
Both unmarried.
Pg. no: 21
Reg. no: HO107
Folio: 385
But I can't find him in the 1841 census?
Here are his children's birth registrations from the GRO:
MARSH, HARRIET ALICE [DAY]
GRO Ref: 1857 S Quarter in EASTRY Vol: 02A Pg: 618
MARSH, MARY [DAY]
GRO Ref: 1859 S Quarter in EASTRY Vol: 02A Pg: 666
MARSH, LLEWLYNN [DAY]
GRO Ref: 1864 S Quarter in EASTRY Vol: 02A Pg: 713
So by the looks of it, Nathaniel Marsh should have married Emma Day, but I can't find any marriage record?
He is about 15 years older than her, so could have had a previous marriage before her, but I cannot find one. She could also have had a previous marriage seeing as she has their eldest child at 32. but again, I can't find any evidence of that.
Any help at all with this family would be useful! That includes Emma and her family too!
Hope I've put down all info needed.
Thank you!
