Thankyou very much for the imformation.

I know there is one or two births for that year but all under montgomeryshire,
Thankyou for confirming the reason why there is none in worthen.

Regards John.

Thought it likely. But the birth cert would still be a good idea for absolute proof.

Lucky you John, with a nice unsual name in that part of the world

This looks like mums birth cert ref

Births Mar 1841
Sambrook Sarah Montgomery 27 93

Go to freebmd.org and just enter the name Sambrook and for all events to bring up a good batch of them in that area.

Buy certs for £7 from GRO online using the GRO refs given on freebmd, as per above.
