Hi.

  If your Info is correct Samuel Collis married a 14 yearold Sarah Roberta Stebbings in Pebmarsh by Licence on 14th (?) August 1810. He would be 26yrs (mmmmmmm?HuhHuhHuh).

PM email address if you want image.

  There is a completed thread about Edward Bentall Collis on here started in Jan 06, possibly connected to you.

  Malcolm.

Thank you for that information Malcolm.
I'm getting a bit forgetful in my old age. I am Bazza Collis and was part of that posting.
Forgot I still had my previous sign in. I have the the church records for Pebmarsh on microfiche, but never found that marriage.
No longer have access to a fiche reader.
Where did you find the marriage details ?
Are there any further details you can give me for that particular marriage ?
Would it be beyond the realms of impossibility to marry a 14 year old in those days ?

I know Samuel was born circa 1784 in Pebmarsh, but baptised in Castle Hedingham
I thought there was some connection with the Stebbings.
Samuel was witness to the marriage of Sarah Roberta Stebbing (age 53) to John Savill 29 June 1840. They were married at Pebmarsh.
This Sarah correlates to the 14 year old in 1810 too.
Coincidence ?
