Hi everyone.
I am researching my RANDS ancestry.
My 3rd Great Grandmother, Martha Jane RANDS was born at Wellingborough in 1843, the daughter of James and Martha RANDS.
James RANDS, her Father was born in Wellingborough in 1817. He was the son of Henry and Jane RANDS.
I wonder if anyone else has come across Henry and Jane RANDS and can share any info about them? Who was Henry's Father, and what was Jane's maiden name...?
I presume Henry and Jane married at Wellingborough at some time around 1810-1815???
Thanks! :)
I'll look forward to hearing from you.

In the Northamptonshire Marriage Index
Henry Rands married Jane Meadows 10th Feb 1811 in Wellingborough, 'both of this parish'
When and where did James and Martha marry?

James Rands is my 3rd Great Uncle. He married Martha Bellamy on 29/5/1839 at St Mary's, Whitechapel, Tower Hamlets. He then went on to marry Mary Dunham b 1823 on 16 Jul 1873 atSt Mary, Lambeth, Surrey, England.
Henry's father was James Rands [1744-1819] (my 4th Great Grandfather) who married Phyllis Garner [1744-1807] in 1786 in Wellingborough, Northants. He then went on to marry Sarah Nobles (nee Lawson) in 1818 at St Giles, Northamptonshire.
James and Phyllis had 7 children
Henry and Jane Meadows appear to have had 9 children.
If I can be of any further help let me know.
