Still tying up those loose ends, which keep distracting me.
If I could find the marriage of ALEXANDER SINCLAIR b ?1815 Inverness to his wife LOUISA JONES b?1815 Wells, Frome, Somerset...it would help me confirm some IGI entries for him in Inverness. Need his father's name.
There is a BMD Marr entry for Alexander Sinclair in 12/1839 Cardiff - but not to Louisa. I know she is Jones because her mother and brother were staying during one census.
In 1841 they are at:
Address: Lewis St Civil par: St John and St Mary Hundred: Cardiff
Their first child Elizabeth was born 9/1841 Cardiff.
They did move to Somerset from at least 9/1844-1853. Then returned to Cardiff. He was a lab. on the railways.
Just to confuse things, his wife Louisa is called Lucy on one census but her birthplace and children right etc. so assume it was an error on the written image or a nickname. Louisa in all other censuses.
In the 1839 marriage entry above, there is a Caroline Lucy but not right surname. Can't find any of the women with that same ref in 1839 later in census, married to Alexander.
As their first child born 9/1841, it's possible they married a year or two before this. Shall I give up? Liz
