    Family 2 Ann Elizabeth GOODHEW,   b. Jun Q 1856, Bredgar, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location,   d. Yes, date unknown 
    Married Between 1891 and 1897 
    • Since Peter's wife Caroline died after the census in 1891 and in the 1901 census Peter is shown with a wife Ann E., I thought he must have married between these dates. The BMD index has a marriage of a Peter CORNWELL to an Annie in 1897 - this appeared to be them. But viewing the PR entry it is clear it is the marriage of Peter's son, also Peter.

      There was only one Ann Elizabeth who is a good fit with the 1901 census info., i.e. born Bredgar in about 1856, and that is Ann Elizabeth GOODHEW, who was Peter's sister-in-law. A marriage to her would not have been legally possible, being within the prohibited degrees at that time, and in a small community like Bredgar it would have been noticed. Hence they appear to have lived as man and wife although not actually married. 
    Married? Not married or evidence to suggest they didn't marry
