    Am I missing something ?
    I am trying to find some info out about Joseph ( John ) Wilkinson, born 1826 in Hexham.
    I can`t find a birth or a marriage to Annie born in 1846 in Poplar although they are on the 1881,1891 and 1901 censuses in Roath, Cardiff. On 1911 census Annie is a widow but then again, I can`t find a death for Joseph.
    They had children Cornelius and Annie.

    Thanks

      Yes Julie, I have looked on there to no avail. He appears as John on some censuses and Joseph on others.
      Thanks

        ooh did you notice on the 1901 census that they have a John o'callaghan living with them?

            Can't seem to find Cornelius pre 1881 - it's beginning to look as if he and Annie (b1869) could be Ann's children from a previous marriage - but can't find a suitable census entry.

              yep thats what I thought Elaine, seems very odd that with such a distinguished name he should be easy to spot!.. not so!

                I thought the same thing. There is a very big age gap between Joseph and Annie also.
                I need to find a marriage now !

                  I'm struggling to find anything on this. I think they must be Ann's children from a previous marriage, and whether Joseph & Ann actually married is I suppose another question.

                  My only thought on this is that I have found a tree on Ancestry which shows the daughter Annie with parents Joseph & Ann. Annie appears to marry a Daniel Aherne in Cardiff in 1892. Depending on how important it is for you to work back on this line, then maybe the marriage certificiate of Annie may give a different father, other than Joseph Willkinson.

                    There's a birth registration of a Cornelius WILKINSON Q3 1862 Whitechapel 1c 373 which fits.

                      I think you are right Elaine and yes, Annie did marry Daniel Aherne. I will get her marriage cert from 1892 and see what it says.

                      Thanks, I will keep digging

                                  Yes he is, age 34 and a visitor !
                                  I have seen the marriage cert also for Annie Wilkinson and Daniel Aherne and it says father - John Wilkinson, Carpenter . What a problem !

                                        I did wonder if John o whatsisface was actually Annies SON, as it does seem a little odd for a nephew to be living with a family for all that time.
