Ancestry, image available,

Charles Alger. 21. Bachelor. Brass ????. Henry Alger. ???
Sarah Ann Lee. 20. Spinster. Alfred Lee. Metal worker.
Marriage Date: 7 Mar 1892.
Marriage Place: Birmingham, St Jude, Warwickshire

Just looking back at this and can't help but wonder what happened between Charles Dilke Alger and Sarah Ann, ok I know that Sarah went off with Thomas Silvester/Sylvester (1901/1911 census)

Marriage: Dec 1931 Sheffield 9c 1375
Thomas Silvester & Sarah A Alger
Must have been a late marriage because of Charles Dilke Alger still being alive?

but why can't I find him in 1901/1911?

I can't see a second marriage.

[BC Wench]

According to a family tree on Ancestry it gives Henry Hargrave married a Jane Bailey, who is the sister of Lucy (Bailey) Alger. Worth looking at.

I can't see anything for Charles Dilke Alger under any spelling after marriage.

[mallosa]

Neither could I Jimmy, thanks for looking though! Out and about at the moment but will have another look later

[Jimmy]

He is probably under a patio somewhere.

Chas Alger
Gender: Male
Admission Date: 15 Mar 1912
Institution: Winson G
Intitution Place: Warwickshire, England
Death Date: 6 Aug 1914
Death Place: Warwickshire, England

I thought that might have been him but why would Sarah Ann have waited until 1931 before marrying Thomas Sylvester

[mallosa]

That would fit - Institution: Winson Green?

Perhaps now that she was living in Sheffield, the news hadn't reached her that Charles had died
