Hi! My name is Katherine. I am looking for my family in Bury, Lancashire, England.
John Howard and Betty Brook
Robert Howard and Nancy Shakleton
Robert Howard and Sarah Edmonston Williams

They were in England and later on, came to Maryland USA.
Any info would be helpful. :) Thank you!

Hi and welcome to Rootschat

Can you include details of birthyears and marriage year for Robert & Sarah please?

I've found 2 of the marriages on FS

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NFZV-JMH

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FMB6-NWL

What is the link between the 3 Howards?  Are they 3 generations of the same family?

Hi and welcome,

On FreeRg there's a marriage for Robert Howard, printer, otp to Nancy Shakleton otp, witnesses John Walker and Ralph Crompton, at St Mary the Vigin, Bury on 5 Jan 1791.

At the same church on 12 Feb 1771, John Howard, weaver, otp married Betty Brook otp, witnesses Roger Howard and Samuel Hamer.

Can't see any Sarah Edmonston Williams though  :(

Hi and welcome from me too :)

The marriages for John and Robert are also on the free Lancsopc website.
I have found three baptisms on there and I think they could possibly be the children of Robert and Nancy.

13 Jan 1799 St Mary the Virgin, Bury, Lancashire, England
Robert Howard - Son of Robert Howard & Nancy
    Born: 10 Dec 1798
    Abode: Bury
   
5 Jul 1801 St Mary the Virgin, Bury, Lancashire, England
George Howard - Son of Robert Howard & Nancy
    Born: 2 Jun 1801
    Abode: Bury
 
  2 Oct 1803 St Mary the Virgin, Bury, Lancashire, England
William Howard - Son of Robert Howard & Nancy
    Born: 24 Aug 1803
    Abode: Tott.

I see from your other post made yesterday that you think John Howard's father is William.
There are a couple of records that might fit on the same Lancsopc website

The right one is John Howard born 2 Aug 1751 and d. 5 Jul 1822
His father was William Howard.
John was baptized on 4 Aug 1751 in St Mary the Virgin Church, Bury, Lncs.
