IVEY Family of Farnham -- Marriage lookup please - COMPLETE

[rthom]

I have an interesting thread on the Ivey family of Paddington which was started over on the London & Middlesex board:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,416454.0.html

The chase has now led back to the earlier family of William Ivey & Mary in Farnham which is recorded on the IGI [C069732].

One of William & Mary's eight children was George Ivey, bap. May 13, 1781, Farnham. George's first three children (Harriott, George, William) were baptized in Farnham in the period 1805-1810, with the mother recorded as Sarah. The family then appears to have moved to London as the baptisms take up again in St Mary-St Marylebone in 1811. On one of these records the mother is recorded as Sarah Louisa.

To close the loop, I would greatly appreciate a lookup in the Surrey marriage index or the Farnham PRs for a marriage between George Ivey and a Sarah (Louisa) in about 1804-1805.

I would also appreciate any local insights or knowledge of the Ivey family of Farnham who appear to have been coachsmiths and blacksmiths.

Thanks,

rthom

Hi Jane:

Thank you very much for the kind lookup.

The info on the other Iveys will certainly help to fill out the picture of the family in Farnham.

So the hunt is still on for ole George...

Ray, you might like to consider looking for the marriage in Hampshire as Farnham is right on the border.  Remember that marriages normally took place in the brides parish so Sarah might have been from a nearby Hants parish

Thanks for the good suggestion, Jane.

I have follow this up on the Hampshire board:

The marriage doesn't appear to be in Hampshire either.

Back to the drawing board.

There's this one on the IGI.  I know it's after the baptism's but sometimes couples did marry after having several children, it's not a modern thing 
George IVY to Sarah FULLER,  17 OCT 1815   Kilmeston, Hampshire.
Personally I don't think it's your couple but I thought I would draw your attention to it,

Hi Jane:

Thanks!  Yes, I had seen that one. It does raise an interesting prospect... 

The family appears to have moved to London around 1812, judging by baptisms which resume in Marylebone.

I realised that that George was an entirely different family when I went looking for family trees on Ancestry
