  • Forest Green!?

    I am trying to find my 3x great grandfather before he married my 3x great grandmother, he is a widower on their marriage cert. His name was William Green and I have found this one, 1851 census, in Richmond, Surrey but can't make out his wife's name, mistranscribed as Forest looks more like Feast to me but I don't think it's that either!

    Could someone please have a quick look and see what they think

    I think it starts with an F because the first letter looks like the F in farrier on the same page.

    TBH it looks like Frank to me :D

                Thanks Elaine, found her baptism on the IGI,
                Feast Bates - Bap. 08/08/1819 - Littleport, Cambs. And that's where she says she is from on the '51 census. Now just to find out if he's mine!

                Thanks again for your help.

                  I'd be interested if you find out where her name comes from - it sounds like it might be a surname.

                  I do have a gt x lot grandfather called Frost, but that is a surname.

                        My chap was Frost Massingham, from Langham in Norfolk.
                        Christine, I wonder if they felt fated to marry?

                          Their daughter's birth was registered in the same district as William & Feast were married and she was Elizabeth Frant Green, it will be interesting to find out where the names come from but as I am nowhere near Cambs it may be some little while
