Hi Jacqueline,

I'm based in Somerset and if I can I'll have a look for you at my local library tomorrow.  The library has been temperaliy closed but was due to open at the end of Nov.  If it's open and they have the fische I'll have a look and in any case I'll get back to you.

Hi Jackie,

Yes - it's not bad but since I've been doing Genee I've often wished I had a traditional family name lol!

Do you have any more info on William Box ie who he married.  I've been doing a search on FREEbmd and the Mormons LDS site.  It may help for tomorrow.

Thanks.

Jackie

   I do hope that I've not caused you extra work by looking

for a marr.re.William. I do know that he wed at Dudley Worcs

in 1840.

Hi Jackie,

I'm really sorry - I went into town and the library has reopened after a fire - great!  Unfortunately they do not hold Parish Records in FRome they are held in Taunton.  I don't know how far that is and I'm not planning to go in the near future - really sorry.

Regards,

Jackie

Hi Again Jackie,

I've been doing a computer search for William's birth / parents with no joy.

I did find his marriage on 27th Dec 1840 @ St Thomas' Dudley to Hannah Smith but you probably have this info - it's his parents you want right?

Regards,

Jackie

Hello Jackie

 Not to worry, and yes I do have details of his marr. I know that his father is John Box a coal miner.Asking for the look-up
was rather a long shot.
 I found a marr.on I.G.I John B.TO Emma Lacey 1813 at
Midsomer Norton,Wlm's 1st daug.was named Emma
1841 cens.Dudley Wlm born out of county,in later cens,he
varies his birthplace between Dudley- Bristol Somerset and
Radstock.
    John - Emma were in Midsomer 1841.also found a David
Box born Midsomer(can't remember which cens.offhand)
wlm also had a son David.(not a very common name back
then) clues?or just me trying to make it all fit.

            Jackie thanks again for taking an interest in my
query.
