Hi I am trying to trace the parents of a William Spencer (b. 1831) in Nottingham. He married a lady named Diana Mercer (b. 1831) in Stamford, Lincs. They had 10 children: Ellen Harriet Elizabeth Alice William Emma George Arthur Alfred Anne I am having no luck so any help would be very welcome! Thanks Gemma. |
