I'd be getting both marriage certs for Ellen. Be interesting to see if Ellen Emma Shaw is listed as spinster and gives her father in law's name as her father.
I could understand the scam for pensions, but not the new baby.....that's taking it a bit far....lol

errrrrrrrrrrr
So Richard Godden is for all intense and purposes for census sake Titus Higgs and Ellen Emma Shaw nee Higgs' grandfather and now also Ellen Emma's father too! On one census it names Ellen Emma and Titus as brother and sister so perhaps she was his aunt as well as his half sister. Or am I so totally confused. ooooooooooooooh but she said her father was Henry Higgs on the first marriage cert Oh god! Are you sure its the same Ellen Emma? I'm clutching at straws to be honest... yes it is the same woman isn't it. Last edited by maggie_4_7; 17-12-09 at 22:37. |

I think Ellen Emma Shaw is trying to hide the fact her father is the same as her husband's by naming her grandfather instead
