Back to my Charles Wayman - sorry :emb:.
I still haven't been able to connect Charles Wayman to my Charles Hemmings but I now have new information thanks to the LMA.
I'll recap what we know.
Charles Wayman is born in Histon, Cambridgeshire in c1857 to Elijah Wayman and Emma Hemmings
Throughout the censuses, Charles is a Brick layer
Charles marries Sarah Carter in 1877 and they have 6 children -
Charles b.1877 Bethnal Green
Emma Louisa b.1881 Bethnal Green
Frederick Walter b.1883 Mile End
Elijah John b.1887 Mile End
Helen Alice b.1890 Mile End
Mary Ann C b.1890 Bethnal Green
I have them on all the censuses up to 1891.
In the 1891 census Charles, Sarah and co are living in Jupps Road, Mile End under the name Weymouth
Charles' wife Sarah dies in 1892 of TB, Charles was present at the death.
Charles Hemmings/Emmings appears on the 15th Oct 1893 in Battersea marrying my Great Great Gran Alice Galley. His father is Elijah Emmings - Gentleman and Charles is a bricklayer.
They then have two children, Martha Caroline and Henry (although Henry wasn't registered afaik)
Charles, Alice, Henry and Martha are together on the 1901 census, Charles is a bricklayer, aged 40, born in London.
Now here's the new info:
Mary Ann Wayman marries John Riddlesdale in April 1899. Father is listed as Charles Wayman - Labourer
Emma Louise Wayman marries Horace Sylvester in August 1901. Father is listed as Charles Wayman (Deceased)
Frederick Walter Wayman marries Hilder Sylvester in December 1904. Father is listed as Charles Wayman Bricklayer (deceased)
So, given that Emma and Fred are under the impression Charles is dead, can anyone find his death between 1892 and 1901? If not, is there any other way of confirming the two men are the same apart from digging up Elijah and doing a DNA test?
Also,
Below are the two marriage cert signatures. I'd like your thoughts on these too. Firstly, did the groom always fill in this part, if yes were they written by the same hand in your opinion?
