I have family born in Streatham 1794 but the records are not in the Surrey Archives at Woking.
I did enquire in the Minet Library at Knatchbull Road lambeth. They hold quite a ot of records but not mine.
You would be advised to ring.
Otherwise I am afraid its the London Metrolpolitan Archives in Northampton Road EC1

Thankyou Nightowl51
Appreciate the info, but a little bit difficult as I am in Australia :]

HI Amber
Oops is a little too far to come isnt it.
I am visiting rellies in Croydon at the end of this month and was thinking of taking a trip to look up my elusive great x 3 grandfathers christening records in Streatham at the Metropolitain archives, give us some details and I will have a peek for you.

Hi Nightowl51
Thankyou so much, I really appreciate the offer.
What I am looking for is:-
Mary Ann Humphrey b 1827 Brixton Surrey
Father James Humphrey b abt 1795
Mother Jemima don't have date of birth but she died in 1838 in wales, cert states age at death 61, bit dubious though, too old.
I don't have anything on Mary ann untill she married my Grt Grt Grandfather in 1850. so anything you can find would be marvelous.

Regards

Amber

Amber - is this your girl in 1841? Have you worked out who Mary aged 50 is -? Why did you say Mary Ann's parents are James and Jemima? Where did you find that info please? How have you got to this Mary Ann as your ancestor.

The reason Im asking the above info is because Ive found a James and Jemima Humphries in Dorset in 1841 but not born in that county and though there is no Mary Ann born 1827 there is a Fanny born 1827? May be just a red herring, but

Jemima passed away in 1838 in wales, have death cert.
First 1841 census is not her, I thought it was, but under futher investigation of census, not.
