Title: BURNHAMS - Exeter
Post by: basiloxford on Sunday 10 September 06 11:18 BST (UK)

Hello,

I am trying to find information about a Sarah Burnham, supposedly born around 1800 in exeter.
she was married in Warbrough Oxon in 1826, and in the 1851 census she was aged 50, from exeter, and in the 1861 she was 62 and born in exeter, the 1871 census aged 69, place of birth unknown.
she died in Clifton Hampton Oxon, in 1872, aged 72.
possibly her father was a man called Thomas Burnham.

Many thanks.

All the Exeter parish registers for period around 1800 are listed on Familysearch.

Thanks for the advice,
i've tried the family search site for that period, but no luck so far.

Do you know which parish she was baptised in? Exeter had over 20 parishes.

If you don't know, you may need to resort to going to your local Mormon FHC and ordering the films and going through every single parish to find her.
