Annie E Herring married the above in the 3rd quarter of 1878 in Birmingham. Does anyone know her dob or whether she was single at the time of marriage? i think she died in 1904. Many thanks.:angel:
 
Re: Was Annie a spinster or a widow when she married James William Allport?

Born Birmingham 1855 and living at 40 Smith Street, Birmingham in 1881

EDIT: Having said that, the only match on 1871 and 1861 censuses is an Annie E.E. HARRINGTON

Thank you Maurice i have looked on the 1861 census and notive their is an Ann aged 6 who is a stepdaughter to the Head of the House surname Ellis. The mother is Sarah Ellis and they married in 1855. I suppose it is possible Sarah had Ann (annie) out of wedlock or maybe Sarah was previously married and was widowed. the plot thickens! Judith

Hi Judith,

The only safe solution is to get the marriage certificate, although there is always the possibility it might just say "of full age"!

EDIT: And they got married in the 4th Qtr, not the 3rd !

Yes there is that problem sometimes. Thanks again for your help and hope its sunny in Crete!

Judith,

I was just looking at a few of the later censuses and she seems to give birth years between 1852 and 1856. There's also a Mary Anne HERRING born in Warwick, 3 Qtr 1854 Vol 6d Page 395. I think you need to get that Marriage Certificate! :D

The marriage cert will say whether she was a spinster or not. There is an Ann Herring on the 1871 census married to a Wiliam Herring b. about 1812; and there is a William Herring of that age who died in 1877. They were living at 4 Highbury Place, Latimer(?) St, B'ham. That Ann Herring was born in 1802 in Henley in Arden.
