Find Ancestors

Hi all,

i am attempting to find the marriage of George Luxford. he married an Ann probably sometime before 1927 as i beleive that is when their first child Ann was born. i have this from the 1841 census. had three children Ann (1827), William (1829) and Edmund (1833).

i beleive George was born in c.1803 in wisborough green, Sussex. I know there will be no marriage cert as its before 1837 but i wondered if anyone may be able to find something in parish records or such?

i haven't done much pre-census as yet so i don't really know what there is to find but would be greatful for any help or advice.

Thank you,
Leanne.

Sorry you're already got it!

Thank you Vera, sorry where did you find this please?

are there any records like certificates which will give parents or witnesses at all please? i have found a brother Moses with him in 1861 census and so would like to find his fathers name to see if i can fully recognise this link.

thank you very much for replying. :)

Thank you both. i think the second one looks most likely. i found three births on IGI for children. two of the children i have in 1841 census says born wisborough green but found on IGI likely ones in STopham. Thank you very much.

:)
Leanne.

EDIT: thank you Vera for the IGI ref to Edmond. that is the one i had found but wasn't quite certain on as i didn't know which to trust IGI or Census. Thanks again.

You're lucky if a parish record gives any details about parents for marriage entry.

However it is worth looking at a microfilmed copy of the parish records as it OCCASIONALLY has some information that is not transcribed.

You can order & view these at a Family History Centre near you. On the familysearch webpage click the Library link to find your local Centre. They are an excellent resource.

thought it was a rather large gap to be brothers but i looked on the image and it does say brother. i just didn't know how to prove it.

Thank you Ozibird, i will give it a go. i Really appreciate all the help veryone has given.

ah Thank you,

i didn't know about James. I had just been going by census so far and he didn't appear with them. i will have a look for him now. Thank you. :)

oh dear, now i'm very confused.

thank you Grumpy for George's birth and parents. Moses is a bit of a wildcard then. not my George's brother then. i wonder what relation if any it is meant to be on the census.

Leanne.
