I am looking for info on
Susannah Rice. her parents were William James Rice and Emily Rice. She was born in1872 in Woolpit .She married Chris ( Christopher ) Smith , and they lived in London. She had 8 children, one of them died in her 20s. I think they lived in the Fulham area. Susannah died in 1933.

Hi William.
I have found Susannah and Christopher's marriage entry (that is, unless you already have it!!), courtesy of FreeBMD: http://freebmd.rootsweb.com

Rice, Susannah m. Smith, Christopher, June Quarter 1896, Registration District is Wandsworth, Volume 1d Page 1159.

Ordering the certificate from the GRO would be a good place to start with this info: http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/
The marriage cert will tell you who their fathers are, etc.

Good luck with your research!!

Ryan.

Hi William,

what is it you are looking for exactly?
Do you have the Census info for her family already? It seems her parents had 11  children, Harry, Louisa, Susannah, Charlotte, Emily, Ellen, William, John, Thomas, Agnes and Albert.
Are you trying to trace the family up or down?
 
Let's try and help you!
