Find Ancestors

I can't find any death or census record for an Elijah Mann so this theory is looking more likely.

I have Elijah's marriage cert and on it his father is named as Charles Palfreyman but having said that maybe he couldn't write .

Or maybe his parents weren't married? The next clue I have about Elijah is that he moved to Cheshire and attended both Stockport and Macclesfield sunday schools.

It was just a thought that he may have used his mother's maiden name as a middle name therefore being Elijah Palphrey Mann. You never know.

Thanks for replies. Yes Astra that's a weird coincidence isn't it.I wonder if it could be mine? I've seen so many spellings over the years of this name.This would explain why I can't find out anything about Charles.

This is an interesting combination of names?

Shanette.
Do you mean he was born in the town of Warwick or the county of Warwickshire?
It´s quite a common name in Birmingham.

I'm not sure what I did wrong but I'll repeat the message
I have an Elijah Palfreyman born 1799 in Warwick whose father I know from his marriage to be Charles a brickmaker. I can't find Charles on any census and therefore wonder if anyone with access to the parish records could find out who Elijah's mother was.Thanks.

.. and my reply didn't increase the count.

There doesn't seem to be any first post here?
