Glitter Baby. I wanted the 1871 census which would have been before she was with Matthew in 1881.
Andy, Is this the correct one as you have edit, no, not correct.
Thank you if it is.

For the 1871 we need her maiden name as 1881 she is Matthew's wife. At the moment I can't find a marriage.

Andy

In 1881 she's listed as wife of Matthew. Can't find the marriage though.

There is no marriage. She lived with Matthew Taylor for years.
Her maiden name was Theresa Stanley.

According to 1881 she was born 1857, Chorlton on Medlock, Lancashire.

How do you know her maiden name?

did you get the name Stanley from the birth cert of daughter Mary?

Births Mar 1881 (>99%)
TAYLOR Mary Stanley Prescot 8b 709

is this possibly also the Mary on the 1881 census - dates would fit even if the spelling of Theresa is a little unusual!!

Lancashire Ann that sounds like her. No father?
They did live in Widnes/Prescot.
There is also a Maud b 1887 Cuerdley
Henry 1882 Widnes.

Theresa was jailed for GBH in 1891 for 18months
Don't know what happened to the children as they didn't carry on living with Matthew!!

Sounds like Matthew would not have been fit to look after the children. I wonder if he was a bully when he had been drinking, presumably all the housekeeping money, and she was at the end of her tether.

One article also insinuated that they were not married as it stated ' they had been cohabiting for 11 years'.

Did the child born in 1891 survive? The article said Theresa had 'recently been confined'.

(just curious after reading the newspaper articles)

All 3 children survived (I think)
Where they went is one of my brickwalls.
I have misplaced the newspaper article. I didn't know that she was confined in 1891. Wouldn't be confined to prison?

Nice to know that my Great Grandfather (Matthew) was a drunk and tried to batter his wife first.

Your other thread is still here, Susan, with loads of info on it:

Margee, I know that there was this G/R thread.
I was referring to the actual newspaper article that someone sent me with more information about the GBH.

it was from the Liverpool Mercury report from the Assizes on 30th July

he came home having taken some drink and she had words about money

'She had recently been confined and was very weak and did not know what she was doing when she threw the lamp'
