CRAYCRAFT, Sarah Ann Wife Married 29 years F 51 1860 Born Goxhill Lincolnshire

First buy the marriage cert to confirm the name of her father.

If it matches the info posted on this thread then get the parents marriage cert for their ages and names of father etc

George

The members that help on the boards can only offer suggestions or possible matches on names. Most of the time it is fairly accurate but it needs confirming by buying the certs.

Perhaps the parents of Lewis never married or married in Scotland or overseas. Without getting his birth cert it is at the moment a mystery.
