Hi, I have found the marriage of my g-grandparents John Horobin - Mary Jane Foden at St.Mary St.Deny's St George in 1864.

The names of the Father's appear as Joseph Horobin and John Foden however the mother's name is not mentioned.

I have tried searching just the father's name for marriages but have had no success.

Thank you, for any advice.

My late husband's ggrandfather is found in Quebec in 1851 as a servant he is 20 years old,working for a very prominant man who was a lawyer,judge and politition  in his private life also as an Officer in the British Army, at that time the British were the ruling government.The Census of lower Canada (of which Quebec is a part) gives his Country of Birth as England.I have wondered if he was an indentured servant? he was one of five people working for Mr E. Bowen and the only one not born in Quebec.
I have tried the ships list,to no avail.I have read the ships captains were not obliged to keep list at the time,I have wondered if such  lists would be kept by the UK of outward bound passengers, and people leaving the country to work.
