In the parish records for the area im researching, there is a Banns entry as follows:

May 31 1863 GOWLER George bac
DAY Kezia sp botp

Now theres a mathcing birth:

DAY Kizeia dau of William & Mary lab born 13 May 1832

All looks simple so far - But...

EDIT: Think trhis is her death - still marked as Day?

Deaths Mar 1906
Day Kozia

Questions:
1) Did they marry? I have seen other records where the Banns entry has been deleted to commented on to say that the marriage didnt take place
2) If they did marry, where is the FreeBMD entry?
3) Where is she on the 1871 Census?

Thanks
Andrew

Do you know anything on George? Could see what happend to him?

Hmm strange!!!!

No i dont, ive just looked up all the Gowlers in the Chatteris parish records and trying to work out where they all fit in.

I have multiple Georges that may fit so was trying to work out which one he was!

Are you still working on this Andrew or can it be archived?
