Edward Sly born c 1787 in Warminster
« on: Monday 15 January 07 11:27 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find a birth record for Edward Sly born c 1787 and believed to be the illegitimate son of Betty/Elizabeth Sly.  Betty/Elizabeth was the daughter of Lewis and Jane Sly. Despite numerous previous searches no record has been found in the Warminster area.
Any help would be much appreciated as I have the tree back to the 1600's if I can make the link !
Regards,
Geoff

Many thanks for your replies but as mentioned in my original message I am trying to link Edward to Betty (daughter of Lewis & Jane) if possible.
