help with brickwall please if possible
« on: Tuesday 10 December 13 13:39 GMT (UK) »
I have been stuck for years with Edward Marsden / Marston who married Dorothy Searson at Queniborough 12 th June 1757. Witnesses were Thomas Searson and Thomas Hubbard. I am not sure (if it's the same Edward ) whether he married twice or three times at Queniborough.      I have been unable to find his birth c 1733 or his parents.                                               I would dearly appreciate any help or information please.

Both the Marriages are on FreeREG 1757 to Dorothy SEARSON and 1775 to Ann HILL
Unfortunately it does not state if he was a Widower.

Baptisms to EDWARD/DOROTHY, Queniborough;
EDWARD, 27 Feb 1761
ANN, 26 March 1766
SAML, 30 July 1768
THOS, 27 May 1770
(Familysearch.Org)

Then we have same pace to EDWARD/ANN;
ANDREW, 28 June 1778
(Familysearch. Org)

As Edward/Ann seem to have only I Child I think it is entirely possible it may be a second Marriage for Edward.
But a Burial for Dorothy needs to be found 1770-1775 to prove it.

Hopefully someone can help you :)

I looked  on the Leicester Parish Registers and Dorothy was buried 12th June 1770 at Queniborough.

There are 6 children listed as baptised to Edward and Dorothy all in Queniborough.
John 19th June 1757
William 15th April 1759
Edward 22nd Feb 1761
Ann 26th March 1766
Samuel and Thomas both 30th July 1768.

Samuel buried 16th April 1769
Thomas buried 29th April 1769

Edward married again to Ann Hill 7th November 1775

Their is only one son listed for them Andrew 28th June 1778

Ann was buried 21st November 1796 and Edward 30th April 1798 described as a labourer

hope this helps

Sorry Sue, there is no additional info on that link I gave you, and FreeReg usually gives all the info that there is.
