That's because I'm a pensioner ! They were all born after 1837, and I have all their certs, birth, marriage, death.

You got it !

James Watson married three times, his second wife Susannah (nee GREEN) married twice. Hence the three extra certs, cost me a small fortune ! James' grandfather Henry WATSON married three times also, surviving all three wives. I can admire a man like that !

I have a Lincolnshire ancestor way back who married five times.

Having done it once, I'd not do it again! If anything happens to this one, I'm buying a motorhome with the life insurance and travelling!
