Hello
I am searching for the baptism of my 4x G Grandfather Francis Joseph born c1771.
He married Sarah Hipwood by licence in 1814 at St Mary, Newington, Surrey. The marriage & licence both say they were of this parish.
The 1841 census they are living in Kennington, Lambeth. Francis was age 70 and not born in the county. Francis died in Lambeth in 1844.
On one of their son's marriage certificates of 1848 Francis was stated to have been a Mariner.
Sarah Hipwood was born in Bath, Somerset. I believe that she may of been born in Walcott, Bath because there was a Hipwood family living there at the time of her birth. I have found that a Francis Joseph was a witness to a marriage in Walcott, Bath in 1823 between Richard Joseph & Susan Johnson. Agnes Joseph was an additional witness.
