From Brickwalls -22.6.2009 (in part)

Edward MARTIN c.1811 Bermondsey

Edward MARTIN married Elizabeth Rose PETERS, daughter of John PETERS and Sarah, MRS PETERS on 15 Apr 1832 in St.George The Martyr, Southwark.London.
Marriage: 15 Apr 1832, St.George The Martyr, Southwark.London. Witnesses at Edward & Elizabeth's wedding were Joseph Martin & Mary Ann Martin. Not known if they are related to Edward
Ages vary a little & MARTIN name varies a lot!

I do wish I knew who my Gt.G'Dad EDWARD MARTIN was.

Todays Mail from my Cousin in Kent, she has just found the marriage of Joseph & Maria & the Baptism of their Son Edward.....online! IGI copy has "George" as the Father.

I now know who my Gt'GDads were. Thanks to all those who popped in & tried to help.

Thrilled for you Wendy - the ones that take the longest are always the most satisfying finds. :)

I must admit I was quite happy on Ancesspit last night - now that a heap of images from London parishes have come on line I found one or two little treasures for my database, including the full entry of a marriage that had previously only been the barest bones on Pallott's.

So let's all hang on in there, folks.

Wendy - if you need anything looking up in Liverpool speak now or forever hold your peace :) I'm off to the central library THIS Friday to tie up a few ends of my own, so I'd be willing to have a look for you. Just let me know by tomorrow midnight our time (GMT).

Mythical marian, more than kind offer.
I don't know what to ask for as the two Gt.G'Parents ages were a guess.
Hannah Mitchell(nee Pendlebury) last spotted on the 1851 census aged 55 with son Thomas. ( I believe)
Her death as Wife/Widow of John would be a find.
Her Husband John last seen in writing as Father of son Thomas at Christening Feb.1840 St.Peters. tho' I guess he didn't have to be there for that. John a Mariner of some kind.

So grateful for any scatterings of news. but perhaps I've had my supply for this month. oh, what's the time there?

Thankyou,
Wendy
