Find Ancestors

Ok so I know that John was born in 1790 and married Ann Hills and think i've found 8 children by them William 1814, Edward 1818, John 1820, Keziah 1823, James 1826, Everett 1828, Ann 1832 and Sarah 1833.
Can anyone find anymore ?

Also I can only find that John had 2 siblings William 1787 & Sarah 1788, surely this is not all the children that John b: 1763 & Mary Everitt had??

Elizabeth's christening - but no surname for Mary so not much help.

i wonder who this Mary Carter is. She is living with the family in the 1851 census & 1861???

Yes that's it

Let's summarise what we have so far. I think in my tired state last night I was getting my John's confused.

John Webb married Mary Everitt in 1786
Their son John Everitt Webb born 1790 married Ann Hills in 1813.
Their Son William married Sarah Fairey in 1840

Hi Marie.
Thanks for the info much appreciated.
Something you said about the 1841 confused me somewhat but i see now what you mean about his widowed mother living with him in 1841. She doesn't show on Ancestry until you look at the original image and when you perform a search for her she comes up as being in a different household. I assume the Mary Hills is John's Wife's mother.

Hello

I'm back, thanks for all your help last night.

I've dug out the marriage certificate of William to Sarah Fairey and it doesnt say the mothers name of William like I thought it did. I don't know what made me think it had. Not to worry.

You wanted me to tell you the witnesses to the wedding, they were: Edward Webb which i'm guessing is Williams brother and Joseph Olsen. I dont know who this guy is.

Fathers on the certificate are: John Webb and Henry Fairey. Hope you can help me get back further !!

That's it !!
Thanks for all your help so far, i'm off to bed now but hope to catch up with you both tomorrow. I'm off all day tomorrow and think after tonight, I will be spending most of tomorrow looking at the tree findings.

hope to here from you again !!

Here you go Hun;

Time for me to shut down for the night. Will catch up with any new developments tomorrow after work.

Just looking for the marriage but can't locate it. Tried the names and that didn't work and then brought up all the marriages for Caxton in December quarter 1840 but they aren't listed.
Can you find it Dee?

i dont have it to hand at the moment but have the day off work tomorrow so will dig it out. From memory, and i'm not sure if my mind is playing tricks on me but i have a feeling that one of the witness's surnames states cooper.

I have got John jnr b:1790 father as John Webb who married Mary Everitt in 1786. not sure how true this is

Bourn, Cambridgeshire 16th November 1840

I don't think my family ever moved from Bourn :-)

Can you tell us from the marriage cetificate please who the witnesses were and exactly what it says because it is the first time I have heard of one naming the mother as well as the father.

Marie,

were did your William son of John Everitt marry?

The baptism and marriage records are from;

And I use ancestry for census returns.
