Margaret Report 7 Dec 2010 01:29

Hi Jax,Margarets maiden name was Mingaud.

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 01:29

What does that mean, Margaret?

You said the 1911 census household was the right one.

The woman in that household is named Margaret Ellen, and that was the only marriage of a Margaret Ellen to a Bethell!

Ah. The woman in 1911 had been married four years.

So there must be some other marriage of a Margaret Ellen to a Bethell ... that isn't in the index ... Do you know what her husband's name was?

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 01:30

Right, cross-posted.

Had you looked for Bethell-Mingaud births?

There is no Bethell-Mingaud marriage.

jax Report 7 Dec 2010 01:31

Yes if you look at freebmd ....link given you will find his birth I wont spoil it for you

jax

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 01:32

Because there was no marriage?
oops, editing, as jax said ... ;)

jax

jax Report 7 Dec 2010 01:35

Seems a big gap between children if that 1911 is them though.

I'm lost. ;)

I was talking about George's birth. Not as Bethell?

jax

jax Report 7 Dec 2010 01:45

I thought William was who we were looking for?

jax Report 7 Dec 2010 01:52

George was born as a Mingaud then?

I actually don't know. I hate these goose chase things. Is your connection to a George Bethell or a William Bethell, Margaret?

If you're actually looking for William, you should give the info you know about him, rather than asking for people to search for a link to someone else that may not exist.

What I was referring to was this:

Births Jun 1906
Mingaud George Toxteth Park 8b 143

who seems to be the George Bethell in the 1911 census, if that George's mother was Margaret Ellen Mingaud.

Births Mar 1885
Mingaud Margaret Ellen Toxteth Park 8b 226

No marriage.

I'm still lost.

Margaret Report 7 Dec 2010 01:56

I have a marriage cert for Margaret Ellen (nee mingaud)marries george bethell 1907.I know they had a daughter ada and sarah,so the 1911 census is correct.Looking at the census shows she had her son George in 1906 and then married her husband George in 1907.

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 02:01

Can you find that marriage at FreeBMD, Margaret?

II can't find it in spite of searching for every possible thing -- ... well, here we are.

Marriages Jun 1907
BETTEL George Liverpool 8b 29
BURNS John Liverpool 8b 29
GRAY Agnes Liverpool 8b 29
MINGARD Margaret Ellen Liverpool 8b 29

Found by searching for Marg* Ming*.

Not quite as advertised. Of course, I did ask for the husband's name quite a while back ...

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 02:02

Can you please explain what / why you are asking about William?

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 7 Dec 2010 02:07

The image (I checked at Ancestry) says

MINGAUD, Margaret Ellen.

FreeBMD has mistranscribed it. You may want to submit a correction.

The link ws missing for the image for George, but I found the image, and he is actually shown as

BETHEL, George.

What a hash. I have no idea how FreeBMD could have mistranscribed either of them, let alone both.

Births Dec 1917
Bethel Margaret J Mingand Toxteth P. 8b 228

Sigh.

But really. George seems to be BETHEL, one L.

... Except that there are the two BetheLL-MingaUd births after that one, that FreeBMD was denying me earlier ...

Yes. William 1921, Annie, 1923. To simplify things.
