Post 71 is roughly what we know. None of us have found Margaret's birth and all we can say with certainty is that Kate/Catherine was her mother and Kate was the daughter of Ann Campbell nee Stinson who ultimately married John Toole.

We have yet to work out precisely the relationship (if any) between George Foster and Margaret Cressey.

In which case I offer this George:

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...n&pId=21850501

Son of Frederick Foster and Ann nee Dalby
b Louth 1846 & a wireworker in 1861
Annoyingly not with parents in 1851.
I think this is him in prison in Lincoln in 1881, a blacksmith striker, born Louth:

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...e&pId=12686481

Which might mean that this is George in 1871:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...d&pId=24505591

A labourer, aged 24 in Hungate, born Lincoln (his parents had moved from Louth, but his little brother Fred was born in Lincoln)

This is Peter Campbell and Ann Stinson's marriage:

The witnesses are John Stinson and Margaret Kennedy.

I should think this is George's death, even though there's no middle name:

Deaths Mar 1905
Foster George 55 Lambeth 1d 224

I'm definitely not saying the man above is the wrong one (or the right one!!), just that, regarding the prisoner who is listed as single, aged 32, b Louth in 1881, in 1891 there's a George Foster, single, aged 46, b Louth in the union workhouse in Lincoln. I don't know if they are the same person, but certainly the bicycle manufacturer is in London in 1891, so the W/H chap must be someone else. The trouble is, there seems to be several who dip in and out of saying 'Louth' for place of birth and none of them have a familiar mmn!

If only George and Mary had produced a child living with them for a census.....

Haha!! I missed post 79 about Leo Morphew! (mmn Grady)

Marriages Dec 1886
FOSTER George Lambeth 1d 890
GRADY Mary Lambeth 1d 890

Frustratingly, I'm not seeing any PR for this unless there's one on FMP (I'd have to get out of bed to look), but I don't see why there would be. Obviously, knowing George's father's name and occ would be good!
