Missing marriage etc
« on: Friday 07 January 11 12:40 GMT (UK) »
Hi
     I have a 5X GGrandfather Robert Sewell DOB ? a Tailor, married a Mary Foster DOB ? in I assume Lincolnshire. They had 9 children that I can find, the first Robert also a Tailor b 1800 in Sibsey and the others all baptised in Boston between 1802 and  1813
I am unable to find and further details about Robert Snr or his wife Mary the details so far have come from Free Gen ( thanks to them ) can anyone help with further info? I have fairly comprehensive details of Robert b 1800.

Thanks

Hi
   Alan7636 thanks how did I manage to miss that?

   Lizdb  Mary's surname came from the baptism entries for the children on Free Reg i.e Prudence Sewel bap 7-10-1810 at Boston.

thanks to you both.

Hi Brian

I couldn't find it on the original FamilySearch site so had a trawl through the updated version and low and behold after looking at about 12 Sewell marriages there it was under Sewells.

Ive looked to see if there are any Christenings for either Robert or Mary in Stickford around 1770-1780 but no luck so far.
