Sarah Ferrar b 1789 - married John Merrick - Norton Canon
« on: Tuesday 02 January 24 06:20 GMT (UK) »
Hi - these are my direct ancestors - (Mary Ann Merrick b 1852,Ocle Pychard coming to Garston ,Liverpool 1871 ) but the VAST majority of my Merrick background are from Norton Canon -

 I have gone back to 1689 John Merrick b Llandinabo , who married Ann Jeffs b c1695 - BUT -I would like to research Sarah Ferrars family as Ferrar is not that common a name -
I have Sarahs parents as Samuel Ferrar ( no dob )and Sarah Stephens b 1747 married Samesfield 30/7 1779 which makes her 32 ??
could someone check this please -
Sarah Ferrar b 1789 Norton Canon married John Merrick b Norton Canon 1787  ..1st born I have is Sarah Merrick baptised St Nicholas ,Norton Canon 5th June 1818 - but can't find John and Sarahs marriage ?..they may have children born before Sarah Merrick ??
any help hugely appreciated ....thanks for reading ....
has anyone got Ferrar in their tree from around this period please ?

I sadly can't see any transciptions of child's baptism that would fit for the couple prior to Sarah  :-\

I searched on Anc and FindMyPast - the latter had transcribed parish records for Herefordshire.  No likely mistranscriptions that I could see

I have just noticed that the following burial record from the NBI ,which you may already have, but this record is missing from the transcribed Parish burial records for Herefordshire on FindMyPast - So it is possible baptisms may have also been missed??
 
Sarah Merrick
St Nicholas Norton Canon
Birth year    1789
County    Herefordshire
Age    36
Death year    1825
Record set    National Burial Index For England & Wales
Burial date    21 Apr 1825
