	Buy the marriage cert for Charles and Sarah It will tell you the names and occupations of their fathers And it's nice if you manage to say 'please' when asking favours

	Susan Please reply on here - you have already done so, therefore you are aware of how to do so And saying "please" and "thank you" will help your cause. The census posted above shows that you have the wrong birth year for Charles. He would hardly have got married at the age of 15. Is it the correct family? If you ask for help, you have to take notice of what is found for you. Marriages Dec 1886 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bebbington Phoebe Nantwich 8a 544 Boston Sarah Nantwich 8a 544 *************** Smith Samuel Nantwich 8a 544 WALKER Charles Nantwich 8a 544 ******************
