Title: Thomas GREEN & Hannah SAMPFORD - Ware
Post by: swa on Sunday 02 September 07 01:22 BST (UK)
In the 1851 census my great great uncle, John Francis ANSELL was living at Musley Lane, Ware, Hertfordshire with his uncle and aunt...

This couple was:
Thomas GREEN born abt. 1828 in Shoreditch, Middlesex.  Occupation: Malt Maker; and
Hannah GREEN (m.s. SAMPFORD) born abt. 1828 in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire.


I have found their marriage on FreeBMD:
Thomas GREEN married Hannah SAMPFORD in 1849 in Ware, Hertfordshire...

Problem is, I need to find out Hannah SAMPFORD'S parents to try and tie in her relationship with John Francis ANSELL.

I can't find any record of her birth and am trying to avoid having to buy the marriage certificate...

Can anyone help?

Best Wishes,

Thank you Ricky & Suz,

I think you've cracked the case...

Hannah SAMPFORD was the daughter of Miles SAMPFORD and the sister of John Francis ANSELL'S mother, Louisa SAMPFORD!

I love this forum!
