Yes i'm trying to exclude people now. the Family tree I have is rock solid up until George Harber Born 01 dec 1765 in Alcester. Married to Sarah "Davis" Harber June 25 1787 in Alcester. Children: Charles,Martha, George/Joseph (Twins) and John. I am down the line of Joseph.

Information on his Parents William and Martha is wild. I think William lived to be a pretty Old man and married a couple times. That or he and Martha had My forefather outside of Marriage.

I've been at this for a solid day now and I am having a really hard time narrowing down William. There is a William Harber who Married Sarah cook 11 Apr 1774 with this as a note

*by banns (No 127) called 13 20 27 Mar both signed by mark p 47 of first Marriage Register*

Sarah was listed as a "Spinster". George would have been about 9 at the time.

If the last name varies slightly and multiple people show up but the dates and locations and such are the same, odds are it's the same person correct?

At this point in time the specific dates aren't as important. This was a verbal com I had with my 90+ year great Aunt Doris after travelling to the east coast for my Grandfather's burial at sea. She told me her side of the family history and I found it interesting so i'm just trying to substantiate it.

I'm just trying to find the concrete link from Fairfield to Nova Scotia at this point in time.

Yes the line from Oscar on seems undisturbed but I can't for the life of me find info about his children, I know there are like 12-15 of them. Iv'e met most growing up. one (Jean-Maxime) was my Mother's adoptive father and blood father of my Uncle Yvon Levesque.

i'm pretty sure William had siblings. I only have the direct line from me to William though. no siblings were ever written down save for mine and my fathers.

Yes great information guys thanks a bunch. Mary Hubbart is correct. i just thought it was a spelling error because of how close it is to Harber. is it common for last names to change slightly? His son William went by Harber.

I think it's hit a point where there is a spelling variation for sure... Don't know much at all about Mary.

I have the info on my ancestor William though. (the son of Charles and Mary)

William Harber born 20 march 1728 in Fillongley, Warwick, England

Married to Martha "Barnes" Harber. Martha is his second wife though. Sarah was his first, she has nothing to do with me.
