Robert Croucher and his wife, Martha
« on: Wednesday 10 June 20 11:26 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,
I am hoping that someone with a sub. for An....y might look up a Select marriage for me. I am using the Kent board as a starting point because this couple christened children in Frittenden, Robert was buried in Staplehurst, and his widow subsequently remarried in Staplehurst and is buried there with her second husband.
What I haven't been able to find is a marriage for Robert and Martha, nor where they were born.
These events could have taken place anywhere, but, having found a reference in the aforementioned website for a Robert Croucher and Martha Post marriage, it may be worth a look as no details are given to non-members.
On the other hand I may be clutching at straws!

Best regards,
PtE

Thank you so much Rosie99. This certainly looks like the right couple as their first child was christened in the late 1730's. And I was obviously clutching at the right straw!

Thanks again,
