In laws of Cornelius England

[Roy G]

Hi
I have a Cornelius England marrying an Eliza Mitchell in Alderbury, Wiltshire, c 1853 and am trying to find out who their respective sets of parents were?

Cornelius born c 1826 was the son of Phoebe (daughter of Betty England) who also seems to have had a later relationship with a Robert Palmer, but I have nothing to say that Robert was also his father.

Similarly I have no parents for Eliza born c1825, but I just wonder if she is from the same Mitchell family that crosses my ancestral path about a decade later.  (It was a decade later that my GG widowed gran Ann Grant nee Petty, married a John Mitchell born 1821) 

So does anyone have access to copy marriage records for Alderbury, Wiltshire?

Regards Roy G

There is a copy of the banns with a note that Eliza Mitchell left the parish after the first set and interestingly banns from 1851 between Cornelius England and Harriet Mitchel.

Sisters perhaps?

Can't see any marriage with parents I'm afraid.

Baptism for an Eliza Mitchel born Rockbourne Hampshire 25 Dec 1824

parents Joseph and Marianne

birthplace matches census

Maybe there is a baptism for Harriet with same parents -

- and actually there is - 1 Nov 1831 Rockbourne Hampshire so they were sisters

Thanks for that'
It now looks like the family tie I suspected is a possibility.

Its conceivable that the John you found on the 1841 census is the same john that appears in the last of these family marriages of mine in Winterborne Stoke.
Ann Petty    b WBS 3 Feb 1837   died 1901
m1 Thomas Grant   WBS 4 Dec 1856
