Any Ager in Birdbrook or Sturmer would be a great help
Thanks JohnA

Hi John,
I forgot you e-mail address which you gave me at the Ager reunion in Castle Camps.
I have been trying to link your Ager's to mine without success at the moment.
Have you found Elijah's parents yet?
Regards.

Hi Danielle,I have a copy of the parish record for Elijah and Harriet.They were married by Banns at Stamboune village church so there is no marriage license.As they were both under 21 it just says that they were married by parents consent and does not give names.They both signed with an"x".The witnesses,Davis and Jarvis I think are local people who could write.Iam pursuing ELIJAH through the Essex County Council Records office which seems a good source and looking at babtisms for Birdbrook,Stambourne and Sturmer where Ephraim was born.Also 1831 and 1821 census.I hope to visit the records office soon.
John

Hi John,
That's great news that you found were they were married.
I have some papers from another researcher who was looking for a John Ager/Agar, it might have your John.
Really curious if our families are related as my GGGgrandfather Isaac b 1777-81 was born Steeple bumpstead[ all the census state this] but still can not find him.
Good luck at Essex Record Office.
Shall be in touch.
Danielle

Hi Danielle
Through the Essex Record Office I have the baptism of Elijah who is shown in the Bishops transcripts and parish records for 1802 for BIRDBROOK.He is shown as being baptised with his brother George on the 30 th May 1802.
His father is George and his Mother is Mary.I think Elijah was born in 1798 in Birdbrook which is shown in the records of the Latter Day Saints(mormons).How does this tie in with your records.
Best Wishes John

Hi Danielle
Yes,thanks I have that info.I will be going to the National Archives to look at the 1841 census for George an d Mary.I suspect he was born around 1780 so he could be Isaacs brother and we may yet be related.Will keep you informed.Best regards John
