...for James GUEST and Sarah SOUTHALL, 2nd September 1804 would be most appreciated.
James and Sarah appear on the 1851 census, Double Row, Darby End, Nail Maker
James b. 1775, Dudley Worcester, age 75
Sarah b. 1782, Lye Waste, age 68
Still researching, but they had numerous children (who, in turn, had numerous children) as follows:
William, c. 1806 (might be James's Dad's name)
John (might be Sarah's Dad's name)
Mary (James's Mum's s name possibly)
Sarah
Elizabeth (Sarah's Mum's possibly)
James, b. 1816 = Matilda nee PLANT (mine- 2x)...married 1835, 15th March, Old Swinford
Rosannah
Priscilla
Daniel
Born in Stourbridge myself but miles from the area now for looking at local records...
Thank you,
Lesley :)

Thank you, much appreciated :)
....Ann HUGHES looks like a grand-daughter
....Wasn't able to find 1841 previously 'cos of "Quest" mislisting
...Great to have the marriage info...not sure how to find more information on parents...of:
James GUEST, b. 1775, Dudley...I think it might be William GUEST from the IGI and
Sarah SOUTHALL, b. 1782, Lye Waste...I think it might be John SOUTHALL from the IGI
Marriage Look up completed.
