I have a Sarah Wells christened in 1815 "Parish Records, St George, Hanover Square, Child Sarah Wells christened 27/11/1815 at St George's, Hanover Square. Her father Daniel, coachman living at Lancashire Court (behind New Bond Street)." In 1841/1851 census her mother is Sophia Hayes, born Middlesex living in Tunbridge Wells with a birth date c 1778. In many trees (copying) Sophia's maiden name is given as Hayes although she didn't marry him until 1826. Sophia's first spouse (or partner) is Daniels Wells with date of birth 1791(?) born in Wisborough Green, Sussex. Sophia has two other children James and Joseph born 1818 and 1819 (possibly). Joseph transported to Australia. I have not yet found a marriage for Daniel Wells and Sophia. Would it be possible for you lovely folk to see if you can see anything?
Secondly, I'm a little doubtful that this Daniel is the right Daniel. He seems a little young to be marriad to Sophia. Daniel must have died or disappeared (maybe Australia?) before 1826. There are a number of Daniel Wells in LMA but I haven't got a subscription and any of this info may help to exclude different Daniels.
If any of you can find any possible info that would help solve this mystery, I'd be eternally grateful.
Thanks in advance
