Looking for Dorothy Marsh who married Obediah Oldfield of Old Brampton Chesterfield 18/12/1825 at Chesterfield Parish Church(Crooked Spire)Think she was the daughter of William Marsh and Reb ?Marsh maybe of Bolsover. Her bapt could be 15/08/1803 in Bolsover. Anybody got any info on this Marsh family. Know there are quite a few in Scarcliffe but don't know if it is the same family. Any help would be appreciated. I live in Chesterfield and have connections to Scarcliffe .

Have you checked the wills for William Marsh to see if she is mentioned?
I see there are a couple in the mid 1800s for 'William Marsh' in Chesterfield - on findmypast under Lichfield Wills (Lichfield covered Derbyshire too).

No haven't checked as I don't have a subscription to Find My Past. Thanks though for your reply.

You will probably be able to access findmypast for free through your local library.
Sorry, I don't have a sub at the moment.

Hi Goldi61 think I may be able to do that along with Ancestry. Thank you.

Dorothy is pretty consistent with noting her pob as Chesterfield.
The only Couple Baptising there in that time frame were WILLIAM/CHARLOTTE Marsh;
JOHN KIRK 14 April 1805
ROBERT 5 July 1807
SUSANNAH 4 April 1809
WILLIAM 23 June 1811, buried 23 March 1814
HENRY 24 Oct 1813
FREDERICk 3 March 1816
GEORGE 9 May 1818
EDWARD KIRK 11 Dec 1822

No Dorothy.
I see the Baptism you refer too but she seems to be the only Child to WILLIAM/REB (Rebecca?)
John Kirk Marsh married 1 Feb 1831 Chesterfield, he was a Clerk of Knaresborough.
The Marriage of William/Charlotte may have been 5 November 1804, Rotherham, Yorkshire
William MARSH/Charlotte LIDGARD
I wonder if this is the other Marriage;
13 February 1803, Thorpe Salvin, Yorkshire
William MARSH to Rebecca ORINGE
William was 40 and Rebecca 30
(F/S.Org)
Lots of William Marsh's around so as goldie61 said a Will may be an option.

Name could be Orange as I have a Orange line in my Tree and it is often misspelt.
