Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Thomas Downing of Keele and Silverdale
« on: Monday 07 February 11 11:56 GMT (UK) »
This is my first post to the forum.... 
I am looking for the marriage record and birth of Thomas Downing and his children....from census records we believe he was born at Keele....he left the military in 1817 at the age of 31....so we are looking at about 1786 for his birth.....we also know that he had the following children....from the 1841 census....
George ~ 1826
John ~1831
Emma ~ 1831
Thomas ~ 1833 our line.....
James ~ 1835
We found a Thomas in the Audley birth records as this was the village listed on the 1851 census....but the mother's name was Mary not Susanna....and we also found that Emma was listed as Thomas's twin....not John's....but we have hit a wall trying to find the other children and the marriage of Thomas and Susanna....
Any help would be great....
