Please Note....this problem is now solved
Is South Mimms one of those places right on a county boundary?
I've been looking (not terribly hard, it has to be said) for a few years for a marriage between Levi Lavender and his spouse Leah X who I hope is Leah Maynard.
Accorging to the IGI they had six children between 1794 and 1807. The "first" one was baptised at South Mimms (is that on a county boundary?). Leah Lavender made it to the 1841 census (living with one of her sons at Watford) and that says she was born in Herts about 1775-1780ish.
This family were non-conformist and after two C of E baptisms (the second one was at Ridge, Herts), had their other children baptised at the Spier St Independent, Saint Albans, Hertford.
If Leah is Leah Maynard then she is likely to have also had a non-con baptism. Her parents would be Thomas and Sarah Maynard. Leah had a brother called Levi Maynard, but I don't know where he was born either. He emigrated to South Africa in 1820 aged 44.
If this was your family what would you do next? (No rude replies thankyou :(:p)
