Hi this is going to be a bit of a 'stinker,' (5 year old nephew came in saying that all day from 'big,' school - bless him!)

Don't know which church but know that :

Joseph kerby b:1798 in Warwickshire (I know, that narrows it down:D) d: 1849 at 142 Summer Lane, Birmingham. Joseph's parents were Joseph Kirby and Sarah Clarke.

Marries;

Catherine Holmes b: approx. 1795 in Warwickshire & d:28/07/1874 in Bromsgrove Uk. Catherine's parents were Eusebius Holmes and Catherine Proctor.

Any info. on their marriages/thier parent's marriages would be v. much appreciated.

Thanks, Sarah.
 
I have the following information which may be useful:

Joseph Kerby was born May 2nd 1798.
Catherine Holmes was born Oct. 3rd 1794.

Thomas Kerby, Father to the above Joseph Kerby was born March 25th 1749.
Ann Kerby, Mother to the above Joseph Kerby was born February 15th 1759.

Eusebius Holmes, Father to the above C. Holmes was born April 10th 1766.
Catherine Holmes (nee Procter), Mother to the above C. Holmes was born August 16th 1771.

Eusebius Holmes and Catherine Procter were married April 14th 1789.

Joseph Kerby and Catherine Holmes were married at St. Michael's Church Coventry April 2nd 1821.

Nb. The main inconsistency here is the names I have for Joseph Kerby's parents is different from those you have.

The source I am quoting from is the family Bible of Joseph and Catherine Kerby, dated February 24th 1823.
