Hi

Thanks for that info...I have all that already, I have her marriage cert too. It's the birth and her parents I'm struggling with, the only birth for an Alice Nelson Jones was 1859 in Warwickshire which is not the right one as it's 5 years earlier than her birth year on the censuses and it also gives a different name for her father.
There doesn't appear to be an Alice Nelson Jones birth in Gloucestershire and I'm beginning to wonder whether the 'Nelson' was added later, but in the family bible it gives her surname as Nelson. Her father on her marriage cert is Richard Jones, so the Jones part is right, unless she was adopted?

Thanks again for looking, it's very much appreciated :)
