My great great grandfather was John Mills born 1848 in Leominster, Herefordshire.
According to census records in 1872 he has a son, John Mills (very imaginative this lot!) born in Liverpool. I have sent off for several birth certs for John Mills born in Liverpool at this time but none seem to fit. I am assuming John the father wasn't married at this time as on his marriage cert when he marrie Maria below he states he is a bachelor.
In 1876 he married Maria Deakin in Salford RC Cathedral, they have 4 children, Evelyn, Reginald, alphonso and Gertrude (possibly Emma Gertrude Mabel)
Maria dies in 1886
In 1893 Elizabeth Mills is born in Eccles/Salford according to census records
In 1899 John married Clara Vaughan, they have 4 children, Charles, Mary, Louie and Harold.
On the 1901 census Elizabeth is living with John and Clara and is described as daughter. On the 1911 census she is suddenly step-daughter. Can anyone help me, I want to know where Elizabeth fits in and also John Mills born 1872. Was my gt gt grandfather just very randy and his wives are the mothers of these children born out of wedlock or what?
