hello

Do you know if they are still alive in 1841? That might help find a birth. There is a death of a Catherine Champion in 1816 in London which gives her dob as about 1771.

Hi Valda

Thank you for your kind reply.  In answer to your question - no - I do not have the full  marriage records.  I was hoping that someone might be able to look them up for me.

Thank you for checking this for me.

Hi Debbie,

I've just seen this post and I am hoping you are still using this forum.  Thomas Champion and Catherine Rogers had one other son, Thomas, who is mentioned in his Will.  That son was baptised at Christ Church, Southwark, Surrey on 21st Feb 1802.  Thomas senior ran a pub in that parish, The Jacob's Well in Upper Ground St. and is listed in the Licensed Victuallers records from that period.  The pub is also listed in his will.  Thomas junior is my 3rd great grandfather.

Did you get any further in finding the parents of Catherine Rogers?  As fat as I can tell, Catherine's parents were John Rogers and Hannah Taylor who lived in Jacob St., Bermondsey, London - in St. Mary Magdalene Parish, where Catherine was baptised on 7th Oct 1770.  Does this accord with your searches or is this the 'wrong' Catherine you mentioned?

Finally, are you related to Thomas Champion?
Best regards
Brian Champion
