Elizabeth Sarah Cotton - which marriage?
Eventually got this sorted and info is on BK6
I have Elizabeth Sarah Cotton birth reg Q4 1857 in St Pancras. In 1861 and 1871 she is with her parents (Arthur and Emma) aged 3 and 13 respectively and her birth place is given as St Pancras both times. I think this is probably her marriage: Marriages Mar 1881 BURBIDGE Edward Pancras 1b 139 COTTON Elizabeth Sarah Pancras 1b 139 DAVIES Frederick Pancras 1b 139 Glendon Eliza Jane Pancras 1b 139 but I'm having trouble identifying the couples after this. Can you work out who she married?

Obviously I can't type accurately! lol
Well, that's a ginormous spanner in the works as she says her dad is Clark Cotton dec'd. She had an uncle called Clark Cotton who was dec'd and a brother Clark Cotton who was alive, but her dad was Arthur and he was alive in 1881. What's she playing at?!!!

The witnesses are her first cousin and first cousin's husband.

Oh cripes - was her uncle her dad??????
Is that why she is the only child in the family for whom I've not found a baptism??? *frets*

It does sound a bit odd, doesn't it. I hope the birth certificate solves the mystery.
I've had a good look among the LMA baptisms, but I can't see an obvious one for her with any parents. |
