Hi Rootschatters,
I need help/guidance or something please.
I am looking for the marriage of my 3 x great grandparents, but I think they may have been married before 1837 and there are numerous spelling anomalies with this Irish-Italian couple. How might I find a marriage please? I'm guessing its in Lancashire somewhere as the births of the first two children are in Manchester and Liverpool respectively.
This is what I know (I think
) :
Giovanni BINI (b.1804, Lucca Italy d. Sheffield 1870)
Sophia KENNY (b.1810 Dublin Ireland d. Sheffield 1869)
First child, Caroline born Manchester - 1838 (birth cert.lists as surname BENI)
Second child Teresa born Liverpool - 1840 (Baptism record on Ancestry has parents as Johannes BINI and Sophia CHIENI - do baptisms list mother's maiden name or were they not in fact married as stated on Caroline birth cert? I don't think either could spell due to the variations of spelling BINI and KENNY)
Third child Angelo George born Wolverhampton 1843 (listed as surname BENEY)
Fourth child Sophia, according to census records born Sheffield 1845, no idea how they are spelling the surname this time, but they settled in Sheffield.
Fifth child (my 2 X G. Grandfather) Austin b. Sheffield 1952, no idea on surname spelling when he was born, this info is taken from Censuses.
I'd appreciate any help.
Thank you.
