Looks like his daughter Eliza's marriage...

Marriage 1862

a name missing ....

Marriages Dec 1862
Homer Eliza Dudley 6c 118
Partridge Enoch Dudley 6c 118
Walters Sarah Dudley 6c 118

Requested a look up on Eliza/Elizabeth's marriage to confirm

mmmm... not the result I was hoping for...

Looked up by RF..

Now to find the correct marriage......

Already on and connects to Linell - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ver-Family

Is there enough evidence to link up to this Eliza - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... mer-Family

I will start another post for Elizabeth dau of David.

Thanks both

I've linked up - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... mer-Family

I thought this would be correct but his age doesn't match

Deaths Mar 1879
Homer Nebo 64 Stourbridge 6c 111

I think it must be?
May be the age given was wrong or wrote wrong?

I suppose that could be a possibility

Can be archived now please
