    A Louisa Bolter m Thomas Bright 1887

    I can see an education record on FMP for Mary Elizabeth Bright same dob as 1939 at school in Nantyglo, Mon father Thomas
    ​​

    A Louisa Bright dies 1892. Can possibly see Louisa with family. Not getting anything definite for Thomas and Mary E after that. Will put up links.

    Vera
    Vera / cbcarolyn - I was just going to ask this myself as could only find the Mary E Bright born in Bedwelty (hadn't come across 1891 census)!

      I started looking for a Jones connection yesterday as thought she must be a Jones and widowed Bright, and found very little, stopped looking when Elaine had the marriage entry and she was a spinster. Bright seems to be more popular in the area than I thought.

      so back to the marriage details

      Rufus Henry Chesterman (grocer's assistant) marries Mary Elizabeth Bright spinster in Abergavenny 1914. Marriage is on FMP, could Audrey be related to the family?

      1901 as Rufus in Rhondda born Bwlch father Thomas....occs matches marriage for father and son
      1911 as Henry assissting grocer born Bwlch
      1939 Henry grocer master

      Witnesses to the marriage are William Henry Powell Beatrice Jessie Chesterman

      Beatrice marries Thomas Alfred Williams 1916
      Mary Elizabeth Bright her details:
      father Thomas Bright - Carpenter
      address is Angel Hotel (I think that is what it says), and she is a Waitress
      11 November 1914 age 28

      he was at 37 Cross street

      Her DoB from 1939 reg is 21 Mar 1887

                    Hope the bc solves the mystery

                    Possible Louisa 's mother Mary was a Jones 1858 marriage but doubt that is who Audrey Doreen was referring to. Lots of Jones in Wales

                          Please can anyone find the 1891 census on Ancestry of them as it's not finding them or I can't find them anyway?

                                    Did anyone spot Louisa's birth on their searches? I 'think' her MMN is Hatton but unable to find her birth and her (what I think are her) parent's marriage - I also think her father was married before.
                                    Thanks

                                      Just remebered Family Search and found some marriages but the lady I thought was her Mum isn't so off to find the 1st marriage of her Dad to get MMN and then hopefully search for her birth

                                      So I thought Mary Hatton was Louisa's Mum but Mary Hatton and Thomas Boulter didn't marry until 1863 (even though they are together on the 1861 census with a few children). So I did another search and found another marriage for Thomas Boulter to Charlotte Herrits but still can't find a birth for Louisa?

                                      And now I think I have the wrong people as the 1851 census has no children on just Thomas and Charlotte ... hmmmm .. think I need to start again!

                                      So I went back to the 1861 census where Louisa is with parents Thomas and Mary. I found her sister's (Jane) birth on the GRO in Presteign and MMN is Price. Using this combination of names and using Presteign I get the following children:
                                      Elizabeth 1847
                                      Jane 1849
                                      Emeline 1852 (not on 1861 census)
                                      Dinah 1854
                                      John 1855 (not on 1861 census)

                                      On the 1861 there is also
                                      Louisa 1858
                                      Thomas 1860
                                      Charles 1862

                                      I've tried using Boulter/Bolter with Price, with and without using Presteign as POB but I can't get anywhere so do you think between John in 1855 and Louisa in 1858 Thomas re-marries? I've found a Thomas Boulter b. 1860, Weobley MMN Jones and Charles b. 1862, Weobley MMN Jones but still NO Louisa??!!

                                          Just opened the image of 1891 for Thomas and Mary. What a mess.

                                          I did look for Louisa do b on GRO. No luck but she has been recorded as a Louisa M sometimes.

                                          I think there are two possible families one is for mm n Price ? Elizabeth and the one I favoured was for Jones is Mary. Both Hereford but reg Presteigne for Price. Other reg District is Woebley? for Mary

                                          Doing this from memory. Will check out my history. I agree Thomas married before.
