So here's my brick wall. I'm looking for Harriet Lewis, born in Ashford Carbonell in 1810/11 according to several censuses. No results on the IGI or Ancestry on a search for a birth/baptism, nothing on freereg. I am stuck. She married James Goodman from Burford, just up the road in Herefordshire, somewhere between 1830 and 1834 - people on the Herefordshire board had a look for that with no luck, so the marriage was also possibly in Ashford Carbonell, and I can't find that either. I fished Harriet's surname from a child's certificate, but it hasn't been of much help. :'(
Very grateful for any assistance or ideas!

Hi,
There is this;
Harriet LEWIS, daughter of Samuel & Elizabeth, Christened on 30 April 1809 at Ashford Carbonell.
I have found the marriage of Harriet's parents and the Christening of their six children but, unless you ask for the information, I don't want to spoil your fun in researching yourself.
Hope it helps,
Gwynne

Family Search had the marriage of James GOODMAN to Harriot LEWIS on 28 Apr 1833 at Edgbaston, Warwick.

Gwynne, thanks so much. I am mystified as to why these didn't appear when I searched! And also mystified as to why they would have married in Birmingham, but the date and names fit perfectly and maybe I'll find a connection at some future point. Very grateful for your help!
