Birth/Marriage John HARPER - Claverley
« on: Friday 17 August 07 10:20 BST (UK) »
Looking for details of a birth and marriage for John Harper born c 1790. Shropshire.

I have found him on the 41 census living in Claverley aged 50 - occupation Blacksmith
Elizabeth wife aged 40
Elizabeth daughter aged 5
Henry son aged 11

1851 census Digbeth Lane, Claverley
John has passed away -
Elizabeth Head (widow) 56
Henry son          20
Elizabeth dgt      15

I have details of this family through to 1901 but just cannot find any information prior to 1841 for Johns birth or marriage to Elizabeth.

Regards

Fay

Hi Fayl
I have found a marriage that may be possible in the IGI index on Family search
John Harper Married Elizabeth Harbidge 6-11-1820 at Shifnal Shropshire.
The same site gives a Birth of John Harper 1-12-1777 and christening 26-2-1786 at Shifnal Parents Richard Harper and Susanna.

Malc

Thank you for that.

I will investigte further the marriage but I think the birth records may be a little early for my John Harper.

Although I will bear them in mind.

Regards
