further to all postings from you good people, would it be possible to do searches on marriages for John, Alice, and sarah to enable to find descendants from them.
I have the marriage for Henry, and also my gr grandmother mary ann (1862)
It would be brilliant if i could find there grandchildren (if still alive) but more likely to be their gr grandchildren.
If i can find the marriages on these people then i can cross check all other details.
thanks for your time
