I have decided to have another bash at working out the parents of Edward Sadler (1833) of Coventry. Now the Warwickshire Parish records are online at Ancestry I was really hoping to spot something new but have not so far, and wondered if someone would take the time to look at it for me.
Edward married Jane Barnes Bolton at St Michael's, Coventry on 31/3/1860 and gives his father as William Sadler, weaver.
I have found Edward living with Harriett (nee Sadler) and James Hitchen also in Coventry in 1851 and 1861 as Edward Hitchen. Harriett and James married in 1841 with Harriett, a spinster, giving her father as William, weaver.
In 1841 Edward is living with Jane Sadler, weaver.
I can't find Harriett in 1841, or Jane after 1841 -are they the same person?
The only baptism for an Edward I can find is to a Harriett and James Sadler at St Michael's in 1833 but I can find no marriage for the couple or subsequent children. I haven't so far spotted a James Sadler, but have found the baptism of 2 children with Harriett as mother.
Alfred 1825 at St Michael's. Illegitimate but gives father as William on marriage to Susannah Hyde. (names his children Edward, Harriett, William).
Henry 1823 son of Harriet and Thomas. Gives father as John on marriage to Louisa Keightly. Alfred and Henry are living together in 1841.
When a child was baptised, did both parents have to attend in order to be named? I know that people often made up a father to appear respectable on a marriage certificate. Did the same thing happen for baptisms?
Sorry this is rather long, but can any one find any link between the 'Sadler boys' or find James, Jane or Harriett?
