I can't help myself but if you change the title of your thread to include "Canada search" someone in that country may see your post and be able to help.

Barbara, can you provide the information you have and I'll have a bit of a search for you. I have free phone calling across Canada if that would assist.

Barbara,

Your title is truncated. Please can you list Lawrence's surname?

Should it be Ford?

There's another Ford/Hemmings marriage in Bristol. I don't think the Bristol births are yours.
