Can you track her backwards in the censuses by using her first name, age, address and father?
(I don't have access to Ancestry to have a look, myself.)

She has actually signed it Swonney hasnt she.
I was just thinking - if she is none too bright - how people add an extension to names, sort of nicknames - like Smithy for Smith. I spose its just possible dad was Mr Swann or Swaine? Sweeney?
In 1881 Edward has a different wife - mother of the kids.Last edited by Heather Positive Thinker; 04-09-11, 01:08.

here is the first daughter Charlotte's baptism Father was a Stoker then ?
Ahtough Edward and Charlotte didn't seem to get married until 1882, I have found them together on the 1861 and 1891 census.
In 1871 Edward seems to be on his own with two of the children - cannot find Charlotte (or baby Charlotte) in 1871.
In 1881 Edward's wife is down as Elizabeth (am hoping this is Charlotte in disguise!)
1891 shows Edward and Charlotte together.
I have found 5 children so far - Emma (c1860), George (c1868), Charlotte (c1870), Edward (c1873) and Maria (c1879). I don't think I have found baptisms for any of them.
St Luke seems to have been given as the birth place for Edward, Charlotte and all the children, throughout the census, - although in one instance Charlotte just gives birth place as Middlesex.

Also fits in with Heather's suggestion of Swane -> Swaney.
Will follow it up.Elaine

Thanks for your help petrene.
I am sure the 1891 census is the correct one (yes I do have Ancestry)
I have a feeling that the marriage certificate is the right one for the family, and it's just that Edward and Charlotte didn't marry first and have children later!
I have also found them in the Criminal registers & newspapers - Edward, Charlotte and Edward junior - assault - in 1887.Elaine
