Searching For Benjamin VAUS
« on: Wednesday 02 January 08 18:34 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for help to find information about my Greatx6 Grandfather. His name was Benjamin Vaus, believed to have been born about 1730 (not sure where).  I also am led to believe he married Sarah Harley at St Botolphs without Aldgate in November 1762. They had a son also Benjamin born 1763. Possibly Benjamin 1730 died in 1766. There is a rumour he was also married before. Any information would be gratefully appreciated, or confirmation of these rumours.
Many thanks
SARAH

Don't whether you've seen this old Rootsweb thread?

The marriage to Rebecca BUNN looks possible for a first marriage.

Is the baptism in 1716 too early?


If only early parish registers gave more details..........

Thanks for all that help. I agree that the time between baptism & possible marriage is a long one.  I there any way we can find out how old he was when he died?

I haven't found his burial. :(

Can't see it at St Lukes.

Wonder which was the nearest church to St Thomas Hospital?
