Title: John Boden & Eleanor Griffiths marriage 1812 Wolverhampton
Post by: Oneday on Saturday 20 May 17 11:24 BST (UK)
I'm looking for further details around this couple.

John Boden married Eleanor Griffiths in St Peter's Wolverhampton on the 15th Sep 1812.

I would like any more details of this couple if possible to rule them in or out of my family tree.

I have possible children but I will wait to see if anyone knows anything further about these 2 people first.

Thanks.

The marriage details can be found on the FreeReg site.

They were married by Banns. He was a bachelor and she was a spinster. They married 15 Sep 1812 and the witnesses were Thomas Arnold and Elizabeth Shore.

Thank you for that information.

It does still leave it as a possibility.  I'm not sure what records you can access but I'm looking for 3 particular children - one is a definate & the other 2 are maybe.

The names I have are John born 1816, William born about 1818 & Ellen born in 1820's.

I'm not sure if these children any or all are this couple's children.

Thank you again for providing a little further information that I couldn't access or find.

Unfortunately I can't find anything for the three children.

The two free sites I used to look for the marriage were

freereg.org.uk

wolverhamptonhistory.org.uk

Thank you for trying.

I'm not sure if they are their children or another John Boden & Elen?

I've been having great difficulty finding any records for this couple. 

I had another 2 in another area & haven't ruled them completely out yet but it's not looking good.
