I need any info on this family pre 1837 if anyone out there has it, perhaps decendants of the family, if not will have to go to Berks Record Office and search.

  I can find no marriage for John and Mary in Sparsholt PRs Roll Eyes

  Did find these burials though that looks like your family

Sep 21 1825 Ann Hicks of Sparsholt age 5
Sep 28 1825 Martha Hicks of Sparsholt age 3
Nov 8 1825 Henry Hicks of Sparsholt, infant

How very sad to loose 3 children all in the same year Sad

Dear Jamajo,  Thankyou so much for that, really great help, I did have burials but not the baptisms.

I think Mary Hicks was born at Woolstone a few villages away but do not know her maiden name. Perhaps she got married there.

  Me Again Smiley

  Woolstone PRs dont start until 1849 and before that all entries for Woolstone was at Uffington.

  I also have Uffington PRs and have found this marriage.... what do you think?

   Nov 10 1817 John Hicks, Sparsholt (x)  to Mary Beasley, otp
                        Wit Alexander Cotterell (x)

  Will see if i can find a baptism for Mary Smiley
