Post by: AlgarvePete on Wednesday 19 May 21 10:16 BST (UK)
Hi all, looking for a birth or Christening for James Skidmore circa 1801 Sarratt or Bovingdon. He has used both on different census. Thanks for any help, Pete.

I note that James married Mary Adkins 24 Aug 1863. I'm guessing that this might be his second marriage. Do you know anything about him before 1863?
