Abraham and Ann Sharp
« on: Saturday 04 March 23 15:22 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for information regarding Abraham Sharp and his wife Ann ? They had a son Joseph Sharp, baptised  at St.Peter's Church. Leeds, on 10/1/1795. Thank You.

Date is actually 18 January 1795 and the location was St Bartholomew, Armley.  Joseph had a twin brother, John, baptised the same day (obviously  :) ) according to the image available on Ancestry.

Thank you BumbleB for your prompt reply. I saw the Baptism and Church on a note some time ago. Thank you for correcting both the Date and Church location. I had no idea regarding Joseph's twin brother John.

Is this the marriage at St Peter, Leeds - 23 December 1789?

Abraham Sharp and Ann Child, by Licence.  Licence transcription says that Abraham is aged 30 and Ann is 24.

Yes BumbleB,  I’ve seen the name Ann Child before. Also another name, I don’t know if a John Aldred Sharp is one of Abraham and Ann’s children.
Thank you
Bill
