you may be right i still would like to know what happened to her, anyone who may have known is deceased now.On the original question of whether or not Phoebe married Arthur's father, it seems pretty doubtful.

i know sarah woodin was married to mr woodin i think he died i dont tend to keep non family members in my tree.A little bit of interest, Phoebe wasn't the only one to have illegitimate children. Her mother (Sarah Woodin) had at least 2 and her grandmother (Ann Manning) also had at least one. Her half sister appears to have had at least one as well.
on the oyther hand you did find a 1935 cert that said she was with harry and reas in the same house i must look for that one.Im afraid not, maybe she didnt. but where did she go after 1911 if not. i cant find her, iv checked and the family seem to dissapear exept my grandad arthur.
no nothing.Do you have any later info about Phoebe - other children, death, where she lived?
yes she had a brother george he was born 1891Don't think Phoebe has a brother George, in 1901 she appears to be a servant of Thomas Hill.
Could still have married Harry Morris though.
iv found this. it looks like they could have been living next door to the reas maybe william was the head of 10 court 62and george was living with them,... do you think 1 court and 10 court are just different housesI tink it may be the marriage to Morris. On 1901 census Phoebe has a brother George. George marries a Nellie Hill and on the 1935 eroll Phoebe Morris and George + Nellie + William Arthur Rea live in Bell Barn Road.

you must be right i have her parents in my tree. i must be getting too old for this.Sorry, I did miss him. He doesn't appear to be correctly registered on the GRO site.
Sarah Woodin wasn't married prior to marrying Thomas Reay.
update, I have been contacted on here by phoebes gr granddaughter today, so fingers crossed there may be some new news.hello everyone who has tried to help me, but i have found the answer from a very elderly distant aunt who would have been phoebes granddaughter.. apparently phoebe never married. so we can stop looking but im very grateful for your help and time, i thought we were getting somewhere. but at least it shows the level of willing help and expertise out there if we need it. donna.
