Newbie asking if anyone is able to access the burial records for:

John Snead [or Sneayd] and his wife
Rebecca Snead [or Sneayd].
The BMD says that both husband and wife died in the March quarter of 1848 in Aston [Sutton Coldfield, Warwickshire], but have been able to find the actual burial records.
Other info. held is that this Couple married at Holborn, St Sepulchre, London on 26 Oct. 1810. The husband was a Widower at that time, and the wife´s maiden name was ´Deards´.  They had 7 known children.  The 1841 Census gives the husband´s age as 70 and the wife´s as 54 [so that would give her a  birth date of about 1787]. Have been unable to find a baptismal record for Rebecca so far.
Could anyone assist me please to access the burial records. I have tried ´Ancestry´and ´Findmypast´so far without success.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Is anyone able to help me find out what happened to the above-named person please?  The IGI gives his christening date as 23 Jan 1630 @ Great Munden, Hertford; Parents shown as John & Deborah Darge, but I think the correct surname was "Dardes", based on other birth and marriage records for the family. He was the 3rd of four known children.  I believe Samuell married an Elizebeth Man @ St Mary the Virgin, Aldermanbury, London in 1654 [IGI].  I found two children presumbly born to them -  John in 1662 and Samuell in 1664, also @ the same Parish.  I have been advised that the son John married a Mary Bloxom @ St James, Duke´s Place, London in Aug 1684. [To complicate matters, sometimes the surname was recorded as Dards, Deard, Deards, or Derd, amongst other variations].  Can anyone advise me please about what happened to the two Samuells, father & son after 1664, because no other records have been found for them since, or advise me how I should pursue my enquiries.

The church of Aldermanburywas destroyed in the Great Fire of 1666, but was re-built by Christopher Wren about 10 years later.

Thanks for your help.

Would anyone know Anne Barbara Dickman´s Maiden name please and where she was born?

Thank you in advance for any help or advice you can give.

Greetings from Spain,

Can anyone out there help me please?  I hold some F.H. details for the above Deards family, but many other B.M.D. records are unknown.  My records start on 24 Aug 1684 when John Deards married Mary Bloxom @ St James, Duke´s Place, London.  They had 4 known children named William, Elizabeth, Mary & John.  All 4 children later married, but one of them, John, [who himself had a son, also named John], died before his parents did.  John, the Grandson became a Master Mariner who died in 1755.  His Will stated that his next of kin was "his Uncle William the Toyman" - presumably the son of John Deards & Mary [nee] Bloxom.  The father, John died in abt. 1730/31 & his widow Mary in 1738 - both buried in St Dunstan´s Church, London.  This Mary left a Will.  "Uncle William" died in June 1761 @ Dover Street, Piccadilly, London and the main beneficiaries of his Will were, he said, his two "assumed sons" William, & John Deards - who was to take over the business, a daughter Mary Martin [nee Deards] and a Granddaughter, Rebecca Deards [then a Minor] - who was the assumed daughter of William Deards. 

Re- the two "assumed sons":-
1. John Deards married a Mary Gaucheron on 20 Nov. 1773, retired from business in the same decade, and died in Apr. 1794, also leaving a Will.  His widow & main beneficiary was Mary Deards [nee Gaucheron] who re-married in 1800, to a Mr. Charles March esq.. 
2. William Deards, meanwhile, ran a Toymakers´shop in Pall Mall, but he was made bankrupt in 1764.  His wife´s name was either Margaret or Mary.  By 1768/9 he had moved to Maryland, Colonial America where he worked as a clerk for the influential Caroll of Carleton Hall.  He returned to London after 1777, where he worked as an "extra clerk" for several years, and was known to be still alive in 1793.  The date of his death is unknown. 

Can anyone add any more B.M.D. or other info. for this family please? 

Many thanks. 
Regards, Barbara [Deards]

P.S. The family´s other interest was in horseracing - to the extent that William [?? - 1761] and his son John [?? - 1794] were each appointed Clerk of the Course @ Newmarket.

Good morning from sunny Spain.
Are you able to do a look-up please for a marriage between a Richard Deards & Martha Warby that took place @St George, Hanover Square, Westminster cerca 1822.  Their 1st child was born in 1823.  I can find no trace in the usual sources [IGI etc].
Thank you in advance for your help.
