LOOKING FOR...AMELIA BECK (MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER), BORN 1842. MARRIED ARTHUR BECK IN 1939 (SURNAME SPELT BEEK IN RECORDS), THIS WAS HER SECOND MARRIAGE. AMELIA WAS MARRIED TO ? GOODMAN BEFORE.

WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM ANYONE WHO MIGHT KNOW OF HER PREVIOUS MARRIAGE AND MAIDEN NAME?

REGARDS & THANKS REBECCA

I think you must have some dates wrong! born 1842 and remarried in 1939 ???

her maiden name would be shown on her marriage cert to Arthur as it should give her dads name

shes down a MONK on her marriage to Arthur if this is the right marriage

I didn't realise her maiden name was Monk, I'll crack on and look for her marriage to Goodman.

Much appreciated

If the marriage to Arthur Beck/Beek was her second marriage then Monk was her previous married name - not her maiden name. Not sure where the name Goodman fits in.

Do you know when Amelia was born as the date you give of 1842 can't be right?

Kath. x

If thats the right marriage then her dads name on the cert will give you her maiden name otherwise you are going round in circles!!

is this her??

Care to give one of the names??

Edit 2: Ok that wont work but getting one of her chidrens certs will

Hey ladies, this is brilliant.

My grandmothers name was Ada Monk (married name Kirkup), but I have found her and on her birth registration it details "Monk Ada G Goodman" 1932 I prob need to get a copy of her birth cert, and I know Amelia's marriage to Arthur was her second marriage, my grandmother and her brothers and sisters were not his children (he was a very lovely man).

I'm just doing my grandmothers side of the family tree.

Thanks for the help

Rebecca

If that is a birth reference you have given for Ada G. Monk, then her mother's maiden name was Goodman. Her first marriage must have been to a Mr. Monk.

Kath. x

so Amelia was previously married pre 1932.and she must have been a Goodman who married Monk as thats the maiden name quoted on Ada's birth

this looks like her if that death is correct

Cant see any marriage to Monk but she had a child in 1917. wonder whether she was only living with a Monk ??

Great

So, I've just had a look and Amelia Goodman was born in 1845 Leics, so I'm having another search!

Thank you, thank you
