Samuel Price and Mary Ann Brooks
« on: Sunday 01 March 20 22:04 GMT (UK) »
I'm researching the marriage of Samuel Price and Mary Ann Brooks. Samuel was born in Nottingham in 1865 and I believe Mary Ann was born in Netherton Worcestershire in 1867, but I'm having issues finding Mary Ann's family. I think they were married around 1887/1888. Any help appreciated, thank you.

Welcome to Rootschat

You can find BMD's here www.freebmd.org.uk

September qtr 1884 Samuel Price/Mary Ann Brooks Basford 7b 249

Have you looked for them on any of the censuses to establish birthyears and birthplaces?

Census info is free at www.familysearch.org

Are you sure about his birthyear as he would only be around 17yrs old at time of marriage

Thank you for your help. I've always found his mother's maiden name to be Knighton.
