Thomas Castle born abt 1780-1790

[Macj99]

I am  hitting a brick wall with Thomas Castle snr born abt 1780- 1790 who was the father of Thomas Castle born 1819 I think Weedon Bec Northhamptonshire. Thomas married a Mary Ann Thomas in 1840 in Fulham and had several children. (this part I am pretty sure of) But I cannot identify for sure where/when Thomas Snr was actually born, where/when he was married and who to. Some peoples tree have a Sarah Sayer 1794-1877 others have other names, but I cannot find any evidence. From the children's baptism records it is a Thomas and a Sarah. the first child born Weedon, Northamptonshire 1816/1818, plus the next 3 children Thomas 1819, Ann 1821 and James 1823. The following 7 children all being born between 1825- 1839 in Hammersmith, London. Any help gratefully received. I have considered that they never married. Or if anyone can direct me to sites again grateful as tried ancestry, find my past. free reg

[rosie99]

To Rosie, yes I have those

Have you then purchased the birth certificate that I have mentioned for Sarah bn 1841 with MMN Sears

[Macj99]

Hi Rosie, have checked out birth cirtificate and it is the right one. Sarah Castle ( ne Sears) and Thomas Castle parents living at address on 1841 census Brook Green

[Macj99]

after following your guidance i have just found and aquired the birth cirtificate for Eiljah Castle born 1838. note on the 1841 census it appears as a 2 year old female Eliza, however this is Eiljah (boy), though there is no name on the birth cirtificate. name comes from following other census records. Mothers name is recorded as Sears again the same as for Sarah. I wonder how this has now ended up sayer. Sarah was born Waltham, Essex and the only marriage/birth I can find relating partially to this is marriage to a Thomas Hall. I have noticed some trees on line have Thomas castle as a Thomas Hall Castle though I do not know why. Any further help gratefully received. Thank you for the help/guidance into partially breaking down some of this brick wall. It has gone some way to confirming thomas castle had children with a sarah sears/Sayer. still not sure on any marriage
