Which David Wiggins is mine????
I'm trying to get my head round David Wiggins b 1845 in Yorkshire,
He married Frances Alderson in 1872 and had children Margaret, Ethel, David and Elizabeth. There are 2 David Wiggins in 1851 census, one living with Grandparents the other with Parents, I can only find one in 1861 but no death for the other one! There are 2 baptisms one in March 1845 the other in Dec 1845, the parents in both cases have similar names. I'm sure "my" David died in 1910 as he is burried at the same place as his wife Frances How am I going to work out which David and family are "mine"? |

I can see the one with grandparents in 1851 but not the other one. Do you have a ref for him?

Do you have the marriage certificate?
If so, what was David Wiggins' father's occupation? |

At least the fathers occs are completely different on the baps, so you could get the marriage cert for yours and cross your fingers!

I do tend to think the first bap could be the one, as a family they seem to have an affinity for the Cathedral.

Sue, there are two deaths for a David Wiggins in Bradford that might be the one that's not yours. One in 1863, one in 1864. No ages given, so that's no help.
Assuming the other David died, this must be your David and his parents: 1861 Census WIGGINS, David 17, Addison Street, Bowling, Bradford BRADFORD, Yorkshire (West riding) WIGGINS, John Head Married M 40 1821 Baker Leeds, Yorkshire WIGGINS, Mary Ann Wife Married F 32 1829 Leicester, Leicestershire WIGGINS, David Son Unmarried M 15 1846 Bradford, Yorkshire RG09 piece 3313 folio 42 page 36 |
