Please help me to find the marriage of William and Mary Lees. They had a daughter bap 29 Jan 1843 at st Leonard in Bilston

[BumbleB]

What other information do you have related to this family?  There are a number of possible marriages between William Lees and a Mary ? in the area.

Assuming that their daughter, baptised 1843, was registered, then it is possible to find the mother's maiden name via the GRO facility.

If this is the wrong Family can you please post the 1861 Census for your Thomas/Elizabeth.

I cant find a Elizabeth Williams c 1842/3 born Bilston with a Husband Thomas.

Ok lets back up a bit.

The 1887 marriage is on F/S for Annie to William Henry Barnett, her Father THOMAS Williams.
She is 22 at Marriage, so born c 1865
(image is on Anc, hard to make out Thomas's Occp, Chair Maker/Chain Maker?)
I dont think that 1867 Christening you have is her.

This appears to be Annie in 1871 Census.
