If you know his parents married in Pencombe in 1758, then surely you must know their names already?
-
Hi
No don't know for sure but the date would fit to what I have been told and Benjamin's age ??
Was told he was born
Bosbury or pencombe or bromyard
Regards Phil

Didn't whoever "told" you about this marriage of his parents also tell you their names?
If not - I wouldn't take any notice of it!
-
The names told were
Benjamin and ann ( Powell )
But was also told there were 3 children born before 1758
It's a bit of mis -information
That's why I was asking please
Regards Phil

Hi
Just looked at my notes
A Benjamin jones in the 1841 census in pencombe ( burhope )
Benjamin jones 79-83
Benjamin jones 30-34
James hill 25-29
So I took it that these jones were the father 30-34
of Benjamin 1853 ( that I am researching )
and the grandfather 79-83
Because in 1861 census
In pencombe
Burghope
Benjamin jones 53 b bromyard
A farmer
Mary jones 44 b as above
Benjamin jones 8 b pencombe
Mary Ann jones 2 b pencombe
Isack Collins 49 b tewkesbury
A lodger
This where I took my information from
Regards Phil
