......to find some indication that even one of these couples ever existed?????
These records are taken from Pallot's Marriage index, only I've corrected the spellings.....
Robert McCrery m Sarah Millwood 1816 Bloomsbury
William McCrery m Sarah Okey 1823 Bloomsbury
Robert was over 21 in 1815 and William was under 21 at the same date (father's will). They are the sons of Robert McCrery of Orange Street, Bloomsbury who was my first cousin 4x removed. Sarah Millwood was also my relative (she was 2nd cousin to her husband), but I know nothing tangible about her at all!
To date the only parish register records I have found for this family are the above, plus the marriage of the grandfather of Robert and William back in 1759 in Bedfordshire (those of you who spend too much time on this board may remember the story of the bride's father who stopped the wedding twice whilst his daughter was underage and then, when she still went ahead, cut her inheritence unless she left her husband......sometimes I wish she had!).
It has taken 15 years to get to this point, via the McCre(a)rys popping up in wills, as marriage witnesses and various other little snippets!
If anyone would prefer I leave my own tree alone and go back to other things, I quite understand!! lol
Anyone got any bright ideas?
