hi
thank you so much i think you must have found her .
i had maria on 1871 married to henry taylor with kemp family .
but did not realise that the kemp family was important
is it possible to find any witnesses to the marriage of
henry taylor and maria freeman
12 oct 1861 in Bovington

Yes if you have the details from the actual marriage certificate or the entry in the parish register. I thought you must have that because you knew Maria's father was called John Freeman (if you were illegitimate and you could get away with it you often gave your father's details as having the same surname as your own).
It might also be worth obtaining the details of Dorcas' marriage in 1856 or the Maria Kemp birth (if it is the correct registration) to see if Dorcas maiden name was Menton. Either of these would help prove the census information - that is if it is the correct Maria.
Regards
Valda

hi
my brother copied the details ( about 15 or so years ago)
from parish records in watford i think
but he did not write them down the witnesses
as we did think it necessary .we just wanted a date and parents .
we now have access to census, bmd entries etc on line
i did not think to re check my early research and buy certificate .
i will probably buy both the birth you have found, dorcas marriage and maria marriage this week
thank you again for your help in tracing maria
i had forgotten my own advise double check my reasearch .

Forgive my ignorance because I'm still quite new here and still trying to navigate my way around.
How do I find my way to the board with the on-going discussions about the Freeman's? I'm having trouble with my Freeman ancestors from Hertfordshire.
Thanks
Lyndsey

Hi Andrea
Yes, I'm a member of the Genes Reunited site and it was probably me talking about the Freeman's. I've posted several messages on their tips board.
Your suggestion to start a chat on Rootschat is a good one, which I will do. It's one of the few things left that I haven't yet tried.
Thanks again
Lyndsey
