      Colnbrook wasn't licensed for marriages until 1852. It was made up of 4 parishes, Horton, Langley & Iver in Bucks & Stanwell Middx. I searched those I could & also the Marriage Index but no sign of a marriage.

      Have you seen the actual baptism entries? One shows godparents.

      Also 2 yr old daughter Mary Ann in 1861 is the illegitimate daughter of Charlotte Frances.

      Do you have Thomas Puzey's baptism?

        Thank you for your kind offer, I've been a bit stuck with this!!

        Please could you look up the birth of Julius Spencer 1807 in Wooburn, Bucks, I would love to find out who his parents were. Also could you see if his wedding is listed in Bucks. He married Sarah MacKrell. I guess the date would be about 1832 as their first child John was born in 1833. Not sure if the wedding will be in Bucks as John was born in Cookham, Berks.

        Many thanks!
        No sign of a marriage in Wooburn or the Index.
        However baptised:
        Julius s. John/Mary 23/12/1806

        His parents:
        John SPENCER Wotp Mary REYNOLDS Sotp Banns 8/6/1806
        Wit: Edward ARIES? Robert GLENISTER Only Robert signed.

        However when John married his first wife Ann STONEWELL by Banns 13/5/1798, he signed his name as did witnesses Daniel HARDING & William ?

        No John SPENCER baptism there.

            If it isn't too much trouble please could you look up a baptism record in Bledlow for Daniel BUTLER, born around 1797 according to census info.

            I'm also interested in finding the marriage between Daniel BUTLER and Sarah UNKNOWN. At a guess it would have taken place in Ickford as this is where Sarah was born, according to census. But I guess her family could have moved to Bledlow and that's how she met Daniel, so maybe worth trying Bledlow as well. As far as I can work out from the 1841 census their first child was born in 1827, but I imagine there might have been earlier children who had left home by the time of the census.

            I'd also like to have a baptism look up in Bledlow for Sarah BUTLER, their daughter, who, according to census records, was born in 1835.

            Please let me know if this is too much trouble, as I do try to get to Aylesbury occasionally, although my baby has a pretty short boredom threshold!

            I've tried to see if the Bledlow registers are available on CD but haven't had any luck so far.

            Thank you, Helen
            Good news - I found the marriage in Saunderton BTs.

                    Glen, bit cheeky I know and please do say if this is too much, but another Bucks query for you if you have time.

                    Elizabeth WALKER born Princes Risborough (some censuses say Park Field which was a part of P Ris) approx. 1834
                    mother Mary UNKNOWN, from 1841 census, widowed on this census
                    father James WALKER, from Elizabeth's marriage cert

                    would like to find a baptism for Elizabeth to confirm parents' names
                    and also a marriage for the parents

                    Elizabeth's siblings from census (in case this helps): Ann 1832, William 1834, George 1835, John 1840, on the 1841 census there is also a Solomon WALKER age 22 who I guess could be a younger brother of James?

                    many thanks

                    Helen

                          Ask away Helen - I've decided to look through my 5 films of Hitchin PRs again - it's been about 6 years. I have to take them to the RO, I shall be going once a week for at least 6 months so am happy to do Bucks lookups. In fact they have a database of events up to 1837 which I haven't got to grips with yet but should help - that's how I knew of the existence of the Daniel Butler marriage in Saunderton. The only problem is that the database is only on one computer so is very popular & there's no booking system.

                            Thank you very much.

                            Hannah died 5 May 1851 in Summerleys, Princes Risborough. Cause of death: 'Inflammation'. Not Certified', she was age 51, wife of William Newton, Labourer.

                            Samuel died 19 May 1851 in Summerleys, Princes Risborough. Cause of death: 'Decline'. Not Certified', he was age 14, son of William Newton, Labourer.
                            Comment from Eve McLaughlin, Secretary Bucks Genealogical Society: Possibly this was TB, which was a scourge which carried off young persons. And was 'catching' in the same household, by droplet infection, I think, rather than contagion.

                            William died 8 March 1874 in Wycombe Union Workhouse, Saunderton. Cause of death: 'Cancer in the Face', he was age 75, formerly a Farm Labourer.

                            Abel died in 1875. Registered June quarter Wycombe district, age 50.


                            I am in contact with a fellow Picton descendant who has given me much information from parish registers including:
                            Hannah Picton was christened in Monks Risborough, 12 October 1800. She married William Newton in Monks Risborough, 19 April 1824. She was the fifth child of Edward Picton and Elizabeth Wells

                              Hi Joy,

                              I see I'm giving you info. you already have so I'll wait until you ask for something more. I was intending to look at the Edward PICTON marriage next but I guess you have it if you know Elizabeth's surname.

                              I'll have another look for the burials of Isaac & Mary.

                                I'll have another look for the burials of Isaac & Mary.

                                Edward Picton was christened in Great Kimble, 27 May 1764. He married Elizabeth Wells in Great Kimble, 18 May 1791.


                                If you can see Mary and baby Isaac, that would be brilliant, thank you.

                                Fanny Newton was born in Summerleys, Princes Risborough 15 September 1847. Fanny died 15 February 1866 in Princes Risborough, at 18 years of age. Cause of death: 'Inflammation with Spinal Affection', she was age 18, daughter of William Newton, Farm Labourer.
                                Could you kindly look for a burial for her, too, please?

                                James Newell was christened in West Wycombe, 16 June 1822. Parents: John and Sarah Newell. He married Anne Newton in Princes Risborough, 22 October 1849. James Newell, bachelor of Bledlow, labourer; father John Newell, labourer. Ann Newton, spinster of Summerleys; father William Newton, labourer. Anne was born in Princes Risborough 1 June 1827.
                                I have lost Anne after 1881 when they were in Hughenden - perhaps you could keep her in mind in case her name jumps out at you? :-)


                                Many thanks.

                                    Could you find a baptism for Zachariah Pusey b1815 in Burnham, parents Nathaniel Pusey and Mary (Newell).

                                    Baptisms for any of his siblings would be good too.

                                    Many thanks for the kind offer.

                                      Wendy,

                                      Noted - remember seeing his kid's baptisms but didn't go far enough back to notice if he was there.

                                      Talking out the top of my head - I was looking in Colnbrook/Horton not Burnham.

                                      Is your Zachariah related to Jac's Thomas?

                                        Could I be greedy and ask for Zachariah's children's baptisms as well? Thought I had them all but seems I haven't.

                                          Hi Glen,

                                          Would you be able to look at the following marriage and get me a transcript please?
                                          Edward Arnold married Ann Ward 2th June 1789, Langley Marsh.

                                          Also, the marriage of Edward Arnold to Ann in about 1824, probably in Eton but maybe in Langley Marsh.

                                          Hope this is OK.

                                          Thanks again,
                                          Tom
