Hi,
Can any one help me to trace the history of Henry Robert Betts b c1868 in Yarmouth. Married my Grandmother Williamina,(Wilhelmina) Crombie April 16th 1911 in Grimsby.
His father was Charles William Betts, mother was Hannah Jane Betts.

Hi Geoff,
Many thanks for your response. I can tie in with all except the 1891 census information and could not find the info on line??
This is the sequence I found following the Census's.
1871 Census
14 Tyerlean Sq Yarmouth
William Betts Head 36
Hannah Betts Wife 35
Hannah Betts Dau 6
Charles Betts Son 2 (He married Annie Barton in 1888)
1881 Census
14 Cressey St Grimsby
Hannah J Betts Head 46
Hannah J Betts Dau 17
William Betts Son 15
Adalina Betts Dau 2 (see note)
Wonder where Charles went??
1881 Census
6 Cressey St
George Betts 33 Born in Worpool
1901 Census
14 Cressey St
Hannah J Betts Widow 66
Henry R Betts Head 33
Robert W Bland Neph 12
Rosehannah J Bland Neice 2
1901 Census
16 Cressey ST
Robert W Bland 34 (see note)
Notes
Adlina Betts b 1876 Grimsby Reg entries RG11,Piece/Folio 3268/63 Page 28
Alina Betts b 1876 Caister 7a 684, I also found a marriage 1896 to Alfred Johnstone.
Ref:- R.W Bland, one of the witnesses to R.H Betts/W Crombie marriage was named Muriel? May Gertrude Bland!
When Betts/Crombie (my Grandmother) married, he lived in No 14 and she lived in No 6.
Hope I haven't confused things Geoff the information will help others to help me!!

Betts family/Alina
Hi Maggiemac,
Thanks for you response,
Yes, I would very much like the marriage details of Alina Betts, It might give some information to clarify if she is the 'Adalina' shown on the 1881 Census living at 14 Cressey Street and shortened her name for some reason.
Found birth details for Adalina Betts (1876) but no birth details for Alina Betts!!
Thanks again and I look forward to getting the details.

Betts Family from Yarmouth/Grimsby
Hi Maggiemac,
Great stuff, thank you very much, that puts another link in my family chain.
I do have the marriage details for Charles W Betts but would be very grateful if you can find any details on his brother, William Betts, born 1866. and Hannah Jane Betts born 1864
Would it be possible to find out if the 'Adalina' is in fact the Alina??, all I have is that she was residing at 14 Cressey Street when born in 1876, no other first names.
Henry Betts 1868 was my step-grandfather.
Again, many thanks
Kind regards
Dave

Betts family from yarmouth/Grimsby
Hello and thanks again.
It sounds as if the Robert William Bland that Hannah married in 1887 is the same R.W.Bland that is shown on the 1901 census as a widow aged 34 living at no 16 Cressey Street. he was born 1867 and would have been 20 when they married.
Thanks for the death info on Alina.
The only information I have on William is:-
Born 1866
Not on the 1871 Census
On the 1881 Census aged 15, Born in Lowestoft, Suffolk. Occupation-Mill Labourer.
Living at 14 Cressey Street with sisters Hannah and Adalina. Mother Hannah Jane Betts.
