Record Office: Northamptonshire. Look up please.

My great great grandmother was Herodias Smart who was born around 1829 in Turweston, Northamptonshire. She married Philip Taylor in 1846 and died in 1868. I would like to know the names of her parents. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks Steve. I live in Devon so I cannot come up to the area very often. Any help you can give will be much appreciated.

Have you thought of purchasing the marriage certificate which will list the names of both fathers?

I have a copy of Philip Taylor and Herodias Smart marriage certificate, but Herodias father is not named. It may be that she was born out of wedlock, but if possible I would like to know the name of at least one of her parents.

there are quite a few trees on Ancestry that have her parents.. maybe a message to one of the tree owners might be able to point you in the right direction?
