Trying to find more information about Ruth Lewis parents.
« on: Tuesday 10 September 13 23:22 BST (UK) »
Hi

My Gt Grandmother  x 2 was Ruth Lewis born 1822 in Buckley Flintshire.
She was the daughter of Edward Lewis c 1788 and Catherine.
Ruth went on to marry my Grandfather x 2 John Spencer and they spent the rest of their lives together living in Cheshire until Ruth died in 1876 in Acton Nantwich Cheshire.

I have found Edward Lewis and Catherine living in Lleweni Isaf Henllan Denbyshire on both the 1841 and 1851 Census and then they both disappear. But I cannot find their deaths to prove this.
In 1851 it states that Edward  and Catherine were born in Mold Flintshire.

Can anyone suggest where I can find their marriage or information of any other children they may have had?

Rgds
Cheryl

There are places missing in 1861 census, maybe they were in there.
