  • Missing in 1861 - and what happened to spouse #1?

    Catherine JORY married James William PEASE, Jan 1855

    First, Pease is an artificer, & father Jory is an artificer. The marriage is performed by ?, Chaplain Royal Artillery ?????
    So, it's safe to assume that the groom and the bride's father were probably both military?

    Can't read the witnesses' names - ???? Jory, and Isabela S???

    Second, can't find Catherine or James in 1861?

    Third, can't find a death for James, but Catherine remarries in 1868. No sign of children from a first marriage. Anyone see it?

    Of course, they may have been overseas...

      Thanks, Val
      Can you find him in 1861? If he were with Catherine in that area in 1861, it would support the idea that it is he.

      I don't have a DOB/POB for him

            If he were military he may have been posted overseas with her?
            She was born 24 Jul 1829 in Stonehouse, Devon, England

                    Maybe Jane? Apparently Catherine had a sister Jane, & I'm pretty sure the surname of witness #1 is Jory

                    can't be sure of baptism - have no info abt him except name & wife...

                    gotta go!

                        I definitely have her in 1861, reporting she was married, but husband not there. She's with her father, sister and son from her first marriage. So, without buying certs, I won't know with certainty where #1 went. I've followed that son forward - apparently he had just one child who did not survive. I don't think I'll pursue this line more.

                        All this started when I went looking for something I spotted a while ago and didn't have time to investigate: some where I saw a side branch who ran a school in London. Of course, I didn't leave myself pointers to follow up. Do you think I could find it again? NO!!!

                        Thanks, again for all the experts who lend their eyes in my searches

                          In 1861 it was not common practice for military wifes to accompany their husbands on overseas postings or even to have army accomodation provided at home.
                          Most likely scenario is that the husband was engaged in miltary duties and wife and child were with her relatives.
