Please before I rush and order a marriage certificate can any of you with more experienced eyes than mine find:
Alice Maud May Dashwood.
I first have her with her marriage to Charles Henry T Bridgland in Tenterden 1880
Next on the 81 census in High Halden Kent with Charles, birth is given as 1860 London Middlesex
Then in 91 in Woodchurch Kent birth London Kent, with Charles and 5 children.
1901 is just Charles and 4 children his marital status M but no Alice.
I cannot find her anywhere in 1901, no death, no remarriage.
I have searched for her with possible children but no luck
I have found a posible birth Bermondsey 1860 but nothing after until her marriage.
Family search only has her marriage but no family
any suggestions please
Harriet
Hello Harriet
Tenterden 1880
A/M/J q
2a 1023
ME
for ref
1891
Charles age 32 farm bailiff born High Halden Kent
Charles H T Bridgeland 32
Alice Maude May Bridgeland 30
Elsie Florance Bridgeland 7
Lilian Amy Bridgeland 5
Hary Charles Bridgeland 4
Horace Relph Bridgeland 1
Edith May Bridgeland 8/12
Julia Bridgeland 14 sister
Richard Beach 15
1901 still living in High Halden Kent
Charles Bridgeland 42
Lilian Bridgeland 15
Harry Bridgeland 14
Horace Bridgeland 11
Mary Bridgeland 10
looks like Edith May became Mary by 1901
I think the only sure way is to buy the cert.... I can't see a death for her and she doesn't appear to be in 1911, well not obvious anyway. I only have the free access to 1911 so don't know whether Charles is down as married or widowed.
An Alice Bridgland marries a william Blackman in 1908 but I can't see them in 1911 in the West Ashford area
Name: Alice Bridgland
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1908
Registration district: West Ashford
Inferred County: Kent
Volume Number: 2a
Page Number: 1226
William Blackman
scrub that one, I think that is a younger Alice Bridgland who was 12 in 1901 living with her widowed mother Alice in Bethersden Kent
Interestingly Alice (mother) also has a daughter Edith age 10
Looks like alice and charles had another child who died
Name: Alice Nellie Bridgeland
Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1881
Registration district: Tenterden
Inferred County: Kent
Volume: 2a
Page: 738
Name: Alice Nellie Bridgeland
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1881
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1882
Age at Death: 1
Registration district: Tenterden

Thanks everyone but it does look like I have to order the the marriage cert doesnt it, how strange she appears only those three times with her first and second names very prominently added as if she is very proud of them.
It was a hope that your more experienced eyes would find something and finding the earlier birth was one I had missed.

yes i am afraid it does look like marriage cert will be needed.
i had a good look round for her birth. if they cant be found at all before marriage it usually suggests they were registered at birth under a different name and i can find a few other alice maud may around with different surnames but they all seem to be accounted for in 1891 etc.
On 1911, Charles is down as married not widowed.
glenton just as he was in 1901. Where was Charles living in 1911 and who with, I think Alice must have run off with someone and living as another mans wife as if she was dead Charles would admit to being a widow.
Oh the mystery of this woman
