Find Ancestors

Hi there!

I have been searching for quite a few days now for more information on the above and his wife. I have picked up the following:-

JOSEPH LANE TAYLOR 1820 - 1896
MARRIAGE TO ELIZABETH
THEY HAD FIVE CHILDREN - WALTER,JOSEPH,ALFRED,ARTHUR,CLARA.

I cannot trace Joseph's wife's maiden name or when they got married.

They were both born in Bristol.

Can you assist me please?

Much appreciated.

regards

Micheline

You haven't said if Joseph and Elizabeth stayed in the Bristol area or not. Is this Joseph's death

Have you found them on any census - please post it will help us to help you

Thanks

That is the right family but am searching for Elizabeth's maiden name and the date of marriage.

Thanks so much!

Micheline

As you named only 5 children and there were several more, I'm trying to establish the correct family and where they were - to try and help find the marriage you are looking for.

They may never have married, or married out of the Bristol area or Elizabeth could have been a second wife for example

joseph is a hair ???? can't read the last word

This is his baptism:

First name(s) Joseph Lane
Last name Taylor
Baptism year 1820
Baptism date 11 Jun 1820
Baptism place Bristol, St James, Somersetshire, England
Father's first name(s) Joseph
Father's last name Taylor
Mother's first name Sarah
Mother's last name Taylor
Place Bristol, St James
Town Bristol
County Gloucestershire
Country England
Record set Gloucestershire, Bristol Baptism Index 1660-1914

So father also Joseph so Safc's 1839 marriage could be correct

If you get a copy of this it will confirm MMN


Births Mar 1857 (>99%)
Taylor Arthur Robert E Stonehouse 5b 281

In view of the name etc of 'visitor' in 1861, the marriage to Turner seems VERY likely
