re: New Canal Street.

Was/is the above street anywhere near St.Martin's? And would it be likely that anyone li ving there be married at Aston Juxta - I thin k the Sutton family who were living there in 1841 were quite poor - father James Sutton was a shoemaker.
Thank you,
Sheri

Shera, Thank you so much for going to the trouble of looking up the children of James and Suzannah. It's very helpful because it confirms that George Sutton was my gt.gt.grandfather - his daughter was called Kezia ? after his sister probably - Kezia was my gt.grandmother - mother of Harry Johnson. Another piece of the puzzle.
