Hello
I have a Sarah Denny marriage 1842 last qtr to James Greaves.Does anybody have access to Marraiges to show Sarah's fathers name please.She lived in Tingewick but was born Preston Bissett.
There is an Ann Denny on the same page I wonder if they were sisters married on same day.
Not sure of Sarah's parentage s I can't find a baptism or see her on 1841 census.
Any help appreciated.I have all info onwards from the marriage.

Hello
I have just found George Moss with wife Ann who was born 1821 at Preston Bissett on the 1851 census.childrens births show mothers maiden name Denny. So that's one sorted.
James Greaves children all had a mother Sarahb with maiden name Denny from Preston Bissett.
I don't have access to Buckingham marriages or I would check myself.
Thanks for replying

Richard Jeffs with wife Elizabeth on 1851 census childrens mothers name Betts,so I think that the 3 marriages
-
I cannot see them on Buckinghamshire marriage index.
-
I looked at family trees on ancestry and everybody seems to have Sarah Denny's parents as William Denny and a Mary Stevens.
I don't think that's correct as those two married in Northampton and I don't want to put that on my tree until certain.
Very strange to not find a baptism or marriage in parish records hanks for your replies

On FindMyPast there is a Baptism
Sarah Denny or Greaves 17 Aug 1823 at Preston Bissett, Bucks
Index only.

No father or mother's names given.

Don't quite follow why is says "Denny or Greaves"
-
Ok FindMyPast also has
Baptism
Ann "Denny or Moss" bpt 1 April 1821 at Preston Bissett
There must be some cross referencing with the marriage indexes going on.
Perhaps someone with more understanding of the system will comment.
Possible sister Hannah Denny bpt 1818 at Preston Bissett.

Thanks someone on ancestry has a marriage date of 18th October 1842 Preston Bissett.
He's in America so I think I'll leave contacting him until they are over the pandemic.

That index also has Ann Denny indexed as Denny or Moss so it looks as though it is something that refers to the marriages of them both rather than just a baptism entry
-
There are a few that have 2 surnames ,it's the same on ancestry where you can edit/add maiden names to the transcription,example is Thomas Denny who married a Mary Ecsley. She is transcribed as Ecsley/Denny.
Bit complicated for me that one.

FindMyPast does not allow you to add information like Ancestry does. If something is wrong on FindMyPast then they correct it

Typical that I can find a few of those baptisms with father George on 1841 census at Preston Bissett.
I've found Ann Denny as a servant in the place where she lived after marriage to George Moss.
Sure my ancestors take the p out of me sometimes.

Not for a long time it went down with a virus some time ago.Notice the marriage 18 October 1842 again so I might send for that marriage certificate.
I sent all information I have on James Greaves and son Edwin regarding marriage children etc but they didn't add to the site.
Thanks Lee
