First let me introduce myself, my name is Angela and I am trying to continue my mother's family history research. I became fascinated learning about my ancestors many years ago and over the past 5 years have been taking over the research after my mother was diagnosed with dementia. I have joined a group of "cousins" and we are all trying to learn more about our common ancestor, and have reached the proverbial brick wall |banghead|
Charles Short b. 18 Mar 1800 in Taunton, Somerset married Mary Stevenson b. 11 Apr 1803. They were married 10 Dec 1826 at Westminster, London.
He was at the time of his marriage an inkeeper at Limehouse London. Mary died in 1847 and at the death certificate of Mary Short, née Stevenson, it showed that her husband was present at the time. I have been told but not seen, that the Census of 1851 listed Charles and his children James, Elizabeth and Alfred living in St Helier, Jersey, Channel Islandsand at the time of the marriage of his daughter, Elizabeth, in 1877, Charles was listed as deceased of St Aubin’s, Jersey. I am eager to find his death information and wondered if anyone could possibly assist me in this.
Thank you.
Angela
