Help finding marriages
« on: Saturday 18 March 06 22:58 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for a Jonah Brewer who married an Elizabeth.  Jonah was born 1 March 1789 in Folkestone, Kent.  His first child, Elizabeth Susanna, was christened at All Saints, Maidstone, Kent on 1 April 1810. Jonah and Elizabeth weren't married at All Saints according to the parish register.

Also looking for Jonah's brother Henry who married Catherine before 1809.  First son Henry christened All Saints 20 July 1809.

Thanks for you help, Laverdiere

Hi Annie, thank you for looking. I had found that Jonah (married to his second wife) and ordered the GRO certs.

I believe I've found his first wife's death cert. but I guess that probably wouldn't have her maiden name on it, hey?

Guess I'll have to keep hunting!

There is also a marriage of a Henry (transcribed as BRENER) to a Catherine "MUNK" at St Margaret Rochester 1806 which might be worth looking at (the images are downloading too slow for me at the moment to take a look)
