Hi, I'm a relative beginner with tracing my family and have hit a brick wall square in the face !! I'm trying to confirm identity of the following persons Francis Aldridge and Maria Hawkins both born around 1792 (ish) I believe in Birmingham area. I've checked endless sites trying to confirm their details and the only trace I can find is on family search site which states they were married at St Martins, Brum on 2 Feb 1812. For many generations my family have lived in the Birmingham area so I'm assuming they were also from here or nearby but cant find out anything about them at all. There are numerous children linked to a Francis & Maria on fso with them being baptised at St Phillips but I cant confirm they are all one in the same. My main aim is to confirm these are the parents of William Aldridge who was born on 8 Jan 1829 in Birmingham. I'd be grateful if someone could check the St Martin parish records for any other details at all that might assist. Thanks :culpability:
