Hello everyone. I hope you are all keeping well.
I am a bit stuck on my family tree and would love some help. I have ancestry and Find My Past.
I am looking for several people that I have listed below; I have listed a bit of information below but do have more should you need it:
Mary Elizabeth Ball (b 1782).
Mary was baptised at St George in the East, Stepney in 1782. Her parents were Joseph and Sarah Ball. Her siblings were Sally Newsom Ball (b 1779 - d 1864), Elizabeth Cooke Ball (b 1791 - d 1868) and Joseph Ball (b abt. 1789 but cannot be sure on birth date) and Elizabeth Ashby Ball (b 1784 – 1787 but cannot be sure she is related). All of the children were born in the Stepney/Tower Hamlets area.
Mary married Thomas Hale, a butcher of Tower Street, London, in 1809.
In the 1861 census Mary is living at 2 Thurlow Terrace Clapham, Surrey with her extended family.
I am really looking for any census information on Mary Elizabeth pre 1861. I am also looking for a parish marriage record which hopefully will list Thomas Hale’s parents. I have been unable to find one.
The wedding of James Hillyer and Mary Ann Ball
Mary Ann Ball was born in abt. 1813 in Middlesex, London. She married James Hillyer (b 1805 - d 1875). Their first child, Arthur John Hillyer, was born in Combe Down, Bath in abt. 1831. The family lived in Combe Down, Bath for the rest of their lives.
The only information I am missing is the marriage. The marriage was likely in the Bristol, Bath or London area. If I could find this information it would open the next door. I can then find out who her parents were. I believe her father was the Joseph Ball mentioned above, the sibling of Sally Newsome Ball but have no proof.
Really struggled with finding the marriage. Hope someone has better luck than me!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
