Something wrong here. There's no Frederick W Saunders getting married in Woolwich 1889q4.

Oops, I just realized the Frederick I found was Frederick T Saunders, the name and area fit, on the 1901 census he is listed as Frederick W. Now I am not sure if it is the same person
thanks Kristin

I have just found 2 entries on FreBMD for Frederick W Saunders married at Tunbridge. one is Dec 1890 2a 1191, and June 1892 2a 1161. One of these may fit, as I know my ex husband was born at Tunbridge, so the family could have been there back in the late 1800's
Cheers Kristin

On FreeBMD & Ancestry you click on the page nos and all the people with the same ref come up so you can see if one is called Charlotte.PLUS if they had children after 1911 the the mmn is shown as part of the GRO ref..
You can also search on FreeBMD by putting in just her christian name as part of the search .

Look at the 1892 one you posted !!!

How did you work back to these people?

Which -if any - of them are you 100% certain about?

Your postings suggest that you may be speculating, to say the least

This will confirm Charlotte's maiden name...IF the 1911 is the right family

Hi Flick, It's a co-incidence, but my Charlotte is married to Frederick W. Saunders, their children were Ethel born c1893, Frederick G, born c1897, Reuben A, born c1898. Frederick was born c1869, and Charlotte c1873. I am pretty sure this is the right family (1901 census), as I definitely have a Reuben Arthur, he is my daughter's great grandfather.
Thanks for your input
Cheers Kristin

So have you got Reuben's marriage cert for his father's name? Or his birth cert as there seems to be just one:

Reuben Saunders married Julia Denahy 14.9.1919, at St. James Plumstead, they had a daughter Ruby Violet, born 3.1.1922 at Woolwich, and a son Frederick, not sure of birth date.

But that knowledge doesn't help you find Reuben's parents if you do not have this or his birth cert.

Almost sure this is that 1901 family in 1911, Frederick's occupation matches (it says carman contractor on both) - image is appalling, I think the ink in their pen ran out!!

Buy Reuben's birth cert....info given above by Jan....to find out Charlotte's maiden name.

You must have accurate info if you are to research your family history properly......'could have' can lead you down many wrong roads!
