Annie SMITH in 1891 (reply)

This all needs further scrutiny to confirm but this is what I've uncovered so far:
Annie Guest b. c1872 married George Smith b. c1868
Annie Guest daughter of Thomas GUEST b. c1823 & Elizabeth MORGAN b. c1827 (daughter of William MORGAN)
Thomas GUEST b. c1823 son of Thomas GUEST b. c1789 & Ann JAMES b.?
Thomas GUEST b. c1789 son of Richard GUEST b. c1743 & Joan BEVAN b.?
Richard GUEST b. c1743 son of Richard GUEST b. c1701 & Sarah Long b.?
Richard GUEST b. c1701 son of John GUEST b.? & Elizabeth ? b. ?

I've found 2 marriage entries for a John GUEST to Elizabeth's one from 1690 (Elizabeth GULLIAM) & one from 1697 (Elizabeth Mountjoy). Plus a baptism record for a John GUEST on 14 May 1665 so at the moment the trail ends there.

Thanks for the help
Dar

Thanks for the info, the problem I now have is that I've just found a wedding entry for Annie Guest & George Smith in Cannock in 1889. Meaning that on the 1991 census in Cheltenham she gave her maiden name. Confusing? just a bit.
I'll order a copy of the marriage cert & see where it takes me.
Would like to say what a help this site has been in my searches on the other side of my family (Mountjoy), just reading through some of the forum postings has helped answer a few questions.

Cheers
Dar

Annie GUEST c1872 FOD

Hi
I've hit a brickwall with my GGGrandmother Annie Guest c1872. She appears on the 1901 census for Cannock, Staffs married to George Smith c1868 (Wolverhampton) with 4 children. She gives her place of birth as simply Forest of Dean, no town or village name.
Hope someone out there can help.
Cheers
Dar
