Hi Isa
I know what you mean about common name ! grin
Well Alfred according to family legend not only was in the Navy but also Army !!!!
In fact he was not above telling Porkies (untruths). On all the census which I have him on
he put birth Marylebone. 1881,1891,1901The only Certificate I could get was 1848
Marylebone with George & Caroline. Now his first daughter he called Caroline but as
you saw he put his father as Alfred on his Marriage certificate.. But then he told family
he was son of a wealthy man who had had his way with Caroline and her husband took him as
her son. Aged Aunt says he had at least one brother who used to visit when they lived in
Paddington where he died in 1939.If I find any connection with your Carter will be in
touch

Hi Jeanne,I can`t see a conection to my Carter`s although I have a number of

Charlotte m.1824 in Tottenham,but all their children were born in Essex.I
don`t know the connection to Marylebone but their son Jesper died 1839 aged
11yrs.in Marylebone also Greatgrandmother Charlotte died in Marylebone

Looking up marriages in B.I.V.R.I. there is a marriage of Alfred Carter age
25yrs. father Alfred to Mary Ann Humphries age 29yrs.father James Humphries
took place Brighton,Sussex 23/11/1872 you have his father as George.It makes
family research difficult with such a common surname.
