Hi there, as I am totally out of ideas now again I find myself turning to these pages, hoping someone may be able to help me, this time its my paternal great grandfathers first wife I am looking for, her maiden name is Hickford, first name of Ellen, sometimes she comes up as Helen, she married my great grandfather Alexander Harries in 1888 islington London (I am awaiting the marriage cert as I cant find the banns online for clues to her parents)
As far as I can tell she only shows up on the 1891 census as being born in Highbury north London & 1901 census as being born in Holloway which more or less bleeds into the same part of North London Uk, her date of birth is abt 1872 according to the census records. I can find no record of her being born and nothing of her dying though Alexander comes up as being a widow on the 1911 census, so I would love to find a birth and death record for this lady and I would be very grateful again if someone can shed any light on the matter, I dont think this was a 2nd marriage for her as her age works out to be about 16 when she married Alexander!
