William Hammock, a groom, married Elizabeth Hayles in Croydon 1815 but I don't think they were originally from Croydon as I couldn't find any other Hammocks in the parish registers. They had a daughter Emily in 1816. We found Emily's marriage in Southwark in 1851.
I can find no further trace of William and Elizabeth. Can anyone help?

Thanks Frances. I had spotted the birth of William but unfortunately there was a burial of an infant William Hammock on 24 December the same year. I could find no more entries for Hammock after that date so I assume they moved away from Croydon.
