Rapley's of Surry England
« on: Thursday 19 January 17 03:07 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I have hit a brick wall in my search for information about my great,great grandparents Henry Rapley b1820 and Maria Simmons b1818. They were married in 1840 in the district of Kingston, county Surrey. I have found in the 1851 census that Henry was a shoemaker  and there were 3 children, James 10 - Sarah 9 - and William 5
Their daughter Sarah b.1843 married Walter Jones in 1868.
What I am trying to find out is the names of Henry and Maria's parents.
I think that Henry's father was James and his mother was Ann but that is where I am stumped.
As for Maria I cannot find anything.
I would love it if someone could have a look around for me, thank you in advance.
Mazzie
