Notes for Matthew Baines MD
One of these is possibly his first marriage:
Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Sep 1853 (>99%)
BAINES Matthew Chelsea 1a 260
BARNES Laura Susanna Chelsea 1a 260
Bryant Edmund Howard Chelsea 1a 260
Diggens Jane Chelsea 1a 260
In the 1861 census these Edmund Bryants with Laura or Jane wives were to be found:
(a) aged, 32, wife is Jane with a dau age 6 and son aged 5m in St Giles, London.
(b) aged 44, wife is Jane, eldest s. is 14, living in Battle Sussex (NO)
(c) aged 32, wife is Jane, eldest s. is 8, living in Bedfordshire (POSS)
This means that it is very possible that Matthew Baines’ first wife was Laura Susanna Barnes.
