Please excuse me coming across as DIM! But, would i be correct in assuming then, that William Cave married Priscilla Barter in 1868???

Just checked the London Marriages on Ancestry but unfortunately the marriages in St Georges Hanover Sq only go up to 1832 ...:(

Unfortunately, it looks like you might have to fork out for a certificate!!

You might have something Tempest.....

There is the following marriage for Priscilla Barter

Marriages Mar 1868
>>>BARTER Priscilla St.Geo.H.Sq. 1a 409
Brown John Wilson St Geo Han Sq 1a 409
Hull George Henry Westminster 1a 409
Speyer Jane Louisa St. Geo. H. Sq. 1a 409

You will note that the marriage for George Henry Hull is in Westminster which means that their is a Groom missing. I've just checked the index for 'Cave' in this quarter and guess what......there is this entry

Cave William St Geor H Sq 1a 409

Susan - try breathing into a brown paper bag!

One option would be trying to trace the marriage by Priscilla's maiden name - do you know it?

If not, get one of the children's birth certificates to get her maiden name. Here's the details for Gertrudes birth registration:

Births Mar 1871 (>99%)
CAVE Gertrude Clara Lymington 2b 603
