Title: COWLES in Siston
Post by: carose on Wednesday 31 March 10 15:25 BST (UK)

I [think] have traced my Cowles ancestors  back to Siston, to a William and Hannah Cowles. While their children are baptised there on the IGI, I cannot find or at least don't have access to any records from which I can find their marriage about 1787. Can anyone help please?
Thankyou,
 Carose

Carose,

Ho, ho ho!  Two more batches of info. extracted from church records but their batches not in the Hugh Wallis site - http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers/CountyGloucester_(N-Z).htm#S.

Batch C008412 giving baptisms at Siston and M008412 giving marriages.  Extracted entries are reliably acceptable.

Thankyou, I'll add the batches to the list given in the resources messages index.  In the meantime go to the HW site above and give the C- batch a go on your COWLES's.

Regards

Chas

P.S.

If you do not know the area very well Parloc from http://www.parloc.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/parlocdl.html is very useful.  C
