Anne Report 31 Dec 2007 21:18

I'm looking for information on Janet Hedley (c1858) who married William Sanders (c1859). William was from Stoke-on-Trent but moved to St Helens to teach. Janet was also a schoolteacher and is listed as being born in St Helens. They had 3 children, Elizabeth, Annie and Charles born between 1886 and 1890. Annie is my grandmotherwhich meant Janet and William are my great grandparents.

Any information gratfully received.

Powell Mary Jane Prescot 8b 1067
Pye Charles Prescot 8b 1067
>>Sanders William Prescot 8b 1067

If you buy this Marriage cert (£7) you will then know both Fathers names and occupations.
