I have crashed into a brick wall and hope someone can help please.

My 3rd Great Grandmother's name was Mary.  She was married to Edward Connolly.  I presume they were married!  I cannot find the record, nor where Edward was born.  They had 3 children Eliza Connolly b.1793, Ellen Friend Connolly b.1799 and Mary Connolly b.1802.  The 3 girls were baptised at St.Dunstan's in the East.  I cannot find them on the 1841 Census.

Hi
I presume you mean in London?
If so a search on FindMyPast for Edward Connolly born abt 1770 (guessed from children's births ) comes up with a marriage - Boyd's Marriage Index 1538-1840 transcription - 1791 Christ Church Newgate London to Mary Weston.
Could that be it?
