I desperately need help or advice as to what to do next. I have been trying to find a John Young. The only info that I have on him is on his sons marriage cert.William Francis Young / Ellen Bush 31.12.1848.
Johns profession was coachman.

Any help or advice would be great.

Helen thank you very much but I already have this info. It is Williams father that I am trying to find. I have a copy of Williams marriage cert and it was on this that I found his fathers name 'John Young' I have searched and searched for him but cannot find him. I just don't know where to look now that is why I am asking for help. I thought a fresh pair of eyes might find something that I have missed.

Carolyn

Do we have any names of siblings to help cut down the options on the 1841?

All the info I have was from the marrige certificate of William Young. It does state that John Young's occupation was a coachman.

Carolyn

Try The iGI - see if you can find any sibs

Who signed as witnesses on the cert? And what residence did the groom give.

The grooms residence is 'St James's Street' and the witnesses look like; Wallace Walters and Martha Ashford. The signatures arn't that clear.

Carolyn

To be honest I've probably got the nsurname of the 2nd witness wrong it looks like A? ford

Carolyn

I think the surname of the 2nd witness is Alford have found her I think on the IGI but how does that help?
