Did they marry in 1873, but have no children until 1886, or do you know of any others?
Thank-you.

Hi Patchem/Mary

Thank you to both for looking for me. This is so strange. I have looked for a long time they seem to have just vanished. I'm beginning to think they may have gone abroad for the first few years of there married life.
Even more strange though that the whole family seem to disappear. Then start to surface again in 1886

Thank you once again to all that have looked for me. I really appreciate it.
