I have now worked out that Henry webb that married a Mary can't be MY Henry as the marriage cert says that he is a bachelor and at the point i guess he would have been a widower although i can't find a death for a Sarah Webb.
Back to square one if anyone can help please.

let's see if i can make sense of this....

William Webb B: 1819 Baptised Harefield St Mary the Virgin, Middx
is the son of

Henry (Labourer) and Sarah.

There is also a record for a Harriet Webb B:1822 Daughter of Henry (Labourer) and Sarah

-------------------------------------

I then looked at all the births/baptisms in Harefield St Mary the Virgin Middx from 1809 - 1829 (I can't post the photo of the info so....

GEORGE (labourer until 1823 the listed as a woodman) AND SARAH (Marriage 1814, no parents on it but witnesses are Robert & Elizabeth Webb)
1815 - George
1817 - Harriet
1819 - Joseph
1821 - Mary Ann
1823 - Louisa
1825 - Amy

ROBERT (labourer) AND ELIZABETH
1815 - Charles
1818 - Charles
1818 - Ann
1820 - Robert

JOSEPH AND ANN (M:1817 - no further information)
1817 - Louisa
1819 - Louisa
1822 - Joseph John
1824 - Elijah

JOYCE
1816 - Elizabeth

SAMUEL (labourer) AND SARAH
1817 - Mary
1819 - James

HENRY (labourer)  AND SARAH
1819 - William
1822 - Harriet

------------------------------------
I then have that there was a GEORGE B:1782, ROBERT B: 1787, SAMUEL B:1775 and HENRY B:1778 - they all have WILLIAM AND ELIZABETH (M:1773) as their parents.

------------------------------------

In Harefield St Mary the Virgin Middx there is a marriage for Henry Webb to Mary Long in 1833
Henry is a Bachelor and Mary a Widower.

--------------------------------
In the 1841 census there is a Henry B:1816 Harefield & Sarah B:1821 - They still live in Harefield

---------------------------------

Henry Webb B:1778 is listed as dying in 1822 he is buried at St Mary the Virgin, Harefield.

------------------
There is no marriage record for Henry and Sarah

I don't know what do to with this info or where to go with it in proving which Henry is Williams father.
