marriage in hadleigh, 1810

[groom]

Hi

It might be worth putting a link to this on the Essex board and see if anyone has access to Parish records for Harwich.

It does look possible doesn't it if they were born in the same place?

many thanks for that suggestion - but how do I put a link to another board!!??  Have not used the look-up very much so am not too sure what to do.

If you click on Help at the top of this page and then on Index to help pages which is in blue at the bottom on the left, you can then click on links which will explain how to do it.

Of course I,d forgotten that

A very long shot but there is this submitted IGI  baptism record of a Rachel Knights  5.4.1774   Ilketshall Saint Lawrence, Suffolk, England

Father:       RICHARD KNIGHTS   
     Mother:     SARAH

But that would make her around 40 at the time of here 1st marriage in 1810 

All the others are in various counties miles away from Norfolk.

This was incorrect so I have deleted it

South Lynn, Kings Lynn Norfolk.

John Thos. Wigner h. widower 38 Baptist Minister of Stepney b Harwich, Essex
George W Wigner son 8 Chapel Lynn scholar at home b Norfolk, Lynn
John M Wigner 6                                          "
Susanna Wigner mother widow 63 House keeper to her son b Harwich, Essex
Ann Avery servant un 20 b Norfolk. Bilney?

So now we have and approx age for both but we still dont know what her maiden name was.

Try Googling for John Thomas Wigner, baptist minister. There is quite a bit about him and his son John. This might help you decide if it is your family or not.

You could send for one of the childrens birth certifcates, it should give her previous name which we know was Knight but also her maiden name.

If you decide to do that I would send for the most recent of the two.

George William Wigner Dec q. 1842 Kings Lynn 13 - 174
