Or maybe not?

CRIPSEY, WILLIAM GEORGE mmn PERRON
GRO Reference: 1877 M Quarter in HULL Volume 09D Page 277

I haven't looked to see if there's anyone else who could belong to this registration.

OK, so William G Cripsey is a different person and it's not a mistranscription - that's his name.

I've seen him on the census and this is his parents marriage reg (she's from Brixham, Devon):

Marriages Sep 1870
CRIPSEY William George Totnes 5b 315
PERRING Sarah Elizabeth Totnes 5b 315

FMP has RC baptisms for Hull St Mary's and St Patrick's, and various other parishes in the area, but I haven't found anything promising yet,

I note that there is an Ancestry tree for Elizabeth Cressey - though they don't seem to know Margaret, but have got Peter.

Also, a Kate Cressey - no age given - got a short prison sentence in 1883 for receiving stolen goods: https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...urn&pId=675219

"STEALING A .DRESS.-Kate Cressey, alias Campbell (26), and Emma Smith, alias Harriet Williams (24), were charged with stealing a dress, the property of Hannah Tindale, from 23, Caroline-street. Cressey was sentenced- to one month, and Smith
13 July 1883 - Hull Packet - Hull, Yorkshire, England "

So Kate had clearly parted company with William Cressey by 1883

I have tried really hard to find them in 1881 to no avail. Maybe there was stuff happening that led to them being missed?

I did wonder whether William, as a ship's carpenter, may have been at sea, or even in Scotland in 1881.

We seem to have reached the stage where a few certificates would be really helpful.

Yes, the marriage cert from Q1 1876 would be a good start. I want to know whether it's before or after Feb 14th. I'll put £1 on it being in March.

Actually, I suppose there's some chance Margaret didn't know her birthday, so 14th Feb would be a good date to choose if you were not sure. I may take my bet back!!

I have got confused I can't take it in because I haven't followed this thread but this Catherine is it the Kate Cressey nee Campbell that Pheonix is referring to here?
