Frances A Cain als Cope nee Caveen

Hi Donna

I'm pretty sure that the Frances Caveen b circa 1856 Castletown, daughter of Thomas Caveen and Mary, is this one from BL's marriage index:

CAVEEN, Frances 14 Jul 1892 D dsg 47b KEED, Frederick

1892 seemed a bit late for a woman b 1856, but these burials give Frances Keed a birth year of approx 1856:

KEED, Francis 87 Dbc 26 Mar 1943
KEED, Frederick 76 Dbc 24 Jan 1926

And here are the couple (childless) in 1901:

Lancashire, Everton, South Everton, district 47, page 20
6 Richmond Terrace
Frederick Keed head mar 52 agent Prudential Assurance Co b London Paddington
Frances wife mar 44 b Isle of Man Castletown

Sorry to pour cold water on your findings.

To keep all this together in the same thread, I'll copy your message in here and post it to the original thread:
