George Mead was born in London in 1835, he was married to Mary Ann Walter born 3/8/1835 in London, they had a son William Mead born 1859 in London.
I am looking to find the parents/siblings of George Mead and any other useful info

Marriage 21.1.1850 at St John The Apostle Whetstone
George Mead aged 18 father James occ carpenter
Mary Ann Walter aged 18 father Joseph occ labourer
Witnesses ?? Stitchbury or Shorebury and Stephen Allison Oliver who appears to be a regular witness on other marriages so was probably a church official
So he was born earlier than 1835

Hi
Where in London did these 'events' take place?
I can see a possible marriage in March qtr 1850 in Barnet but that would make Mary Ann very young on her marriage with a birth year of 1835.
I presume you have them on census, you could you please post details of the earliest one

ADDED Thanks CaroleW :)

This is a possible christening as the address on the marriage cert was Whetstone
St John The Apostle Whetstone

Thank you for replies so far, I am in contact with George's Gt Gt Granddaughter who is trying to find info on James, George's Father, I think you may have come up with a couple of leads.
I note dates of Birth we have for George and Mary and ages on marraige Cert; don't quite add up, maybe they married under age and not checked back then - I don't know just a thought.
I have looked at James Whittle Mead Death, checked 1851 Census and doesn't show up as having lived at 73 Westbourne Park Villas, but this was a year before his death and may have subsequently moved in.
Again many thanks for info, a few leads to follow up in meantime any further info would be welcome.
