Put the two surnames in the correct boxes on freebmd and click 'find'

https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

I presume this is their marriage? (you haven't told us the man's name)


Marriages Jun 1917 (>99%)
Lowe Clara Timson Nottingham 7b 522
Timson William H Lowe Nottingham 7b 522

William was living alone in 1921

In that case, the advice about looking at freebmd is relevant

I think Nottinghamshire - if this is related to a previous thread in which Linda asks about her mother 's side of the family.

Her maternal grandfather is not named in that thread. Her maternal grandmother was born in November 1901 .

But I don't know if Linda is now asking about her maternal or paternal grandfather, and in any case, her maternal grandmother isn't relevant to the present query..

Freebmd only covers England and Wales. If they were born elsewhere you will need to use other resources.

Use freebmd and put in the two surnames and the year they married as a starter

Depending on grandfathers age wouid he have been on any census with his wife ?
