Marriage Joseph Edwards

clarkie

Exiled Brummie
Joseph Edwards married Sarah Clarke 2 July 1815 Saint Martin, Birmingham.

I wonder if anyone could add any details?

Regards

Clarkie
 
In keeping with many of those marriages in big cities pre-1837, that's all there is! Sorry Clarkie, we can't give you what was not recorded. Not even witnesses names on this one.

Hi Maurice,
I was hoping someone would have access to the original marriage records which commenced in 1754. These are on Ancestry, these records generally record some details, I am no longer a member.

Clarkie,

That is from the original marriage record image on Ancestry. Send me your email address in a Private Message and I will email you a copy of the image of the page.

Hi Clarkie, I wonder whether baptisms can help you. I've found these baptisms all at st. martins in the years after the marriage. maybe one of them is your family so it may give you address and occupation. all have parents joseph and sarah edwards.

Hi Shera,
These 4 were from that family:
joseph edwards bap 7.3.1820 ashted.. accountant
sarah edwards bap 14.5.1821 bromford nr erdington. accountant
george edwards bap 29.5.1822 bromford nr erdington accountant
mary edwards bap 19.8.1823 bromford nr erdington. accountant

There was also a Samuel born 1819 but baptised later & 3 born in Solihull where the family moved to briefly.

I received the marriage information via a post on another site.

Sadly it turned out to be the wrong Sarah Clarke!

Many thanks for your trouble.

Regards Clarkie
