Records prior to 1786
« on: Wednesday 24 July 13 10:12 BST (UK) »
Hi there.  The help here has been amazing but I am at an enpasse on one of the legs of my research.

I have managed to get back to George Short, farmer, b 1786 who married Sarah.
They had a child George Short b 1816, d 1880 who married Mary Ann Barker.
They had Walter Short b 1852 d1929 who married Rosina Fisher.
etc etc to me here today.

However Its George and Sarah I would like to try to trace back - but dont know where to look now.  Or rather I am looking but not able to make any connection.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Jace

You're looking at parish records now. If you post some more details re area, place of birth etc., someone may be able to help.
