Thanks again

I must have been having a proper divvy day (head broken after stroke) yesterday, I tried Freereg and it came up with nothing, today it works, I blame the internet lol.

Glad to have you all helping, sometimes my head needs a nudge in the right direction.

Hi help with a new SEWELL in Nottingham

Reg Year:1861  Reg Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep  Reg District: Nottingham
Mary Ann Martin
Mary Ann Porter
Henry Sewell
Charles Spencer

I need to know if Henry married Miss Martin or Miss Porter, if anyone can help, before I make a guess and order a pdf.

Nottingham is a new area for my research and I'm finding it not easy to research for free, humph, and do not know the area at all, so struggling.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi

All the information was found on the FamilySearch:

https://www.familysearch.org/search/record/results?givenname=jasper&surname=Booker&birth_place=kent&birth_year_from=1796&birth_year_to=1801&record_country=England&record_subcountry=England%2CKent&count=20

Hi Peter

I'm still here lol, been a while since I looked at Bookers, I have no Jasper. A quick look shows:

Jasper appears on 1841 census, 1851 and in 1861 with daughter Sarah who was married to Silas Dray, he died and was buried 30 Sep 1866 in Farningham, Kent.  Sarah baptised 1 Feb 1835 to Jasper and Ann Booker in Farningham.

Unfortunately it appears he wasn't born (GRO death index has his birth 1796) but I cannot place him anywhere before 1835, name change Jasper/Joseph?  Others have placed the daughter with a Joseph Booker who married Mary Smith in 1821, although I'm not convinced. 

It is such a huge family and I know I've not added everyone so he may join somewhere.  I will add his name to my list to look for next time I visit the archives, but this may not be for some months as work gets in the way and my memory may forget (stroke broken brain), Strood Archives Centre has them on microfilm, they may be able to do a lookup for you, not sure if they charge, I know they have volunteers:

The above is their site which has Digitised Parish Records for the area, unfortunately they did everywhere around Eynsford but not it, but you may be lucky with other areas.

I have made a note to look out for Jasper, but forgive me if I forget.
