Can you include details of any census/IGI/BMD info that you already have please - it saves us wasting time duplicating info you may already have

Hi

You clearly haven't just plucked their names out of thin air so where did you get the info from re: his birthyear and birthplace and where did you get Ann's maiden name from?

If you are a descendant of one of their children - you must have details of that child
 
If you are not a direct descendant - tell us where this couple fit into your FH as this is all info which helps us to help you

A parent search on the IGI Beta site shows a son born in Surrey in 1826 - have you checked that site

Hello CaroleW

I see the error of my ways. Of course they had children and that is important.

William and Ann had the following children:

William b 1826 London
Mary Ann b 24 May 1829 London
Emma b 1833 London
Eliza b 1835

Thanks for your help

Hi David, I can see the concern of how do you know the maiden name of Ann, as the marriage of a William Griffin to an Ann Laxton/Loxton was by Banns last being read 18th Dec 1826 St Mary, Hornsey Rise, but their are other marriages of Ann's to a William Griffin in London that could also be her?

There is an 1841 census with a Mary Ann aged 12, an Emma aged 8 and an Eliza aged 6, but with a James aged 14, parents William and Ann in Isleworth Middx.
Census Ref HO107/658/ 8/29/ 18

Was William a Policeman?

Hi keyboard86

I believe the 1841 census has them. That fits the three girls perfectly and I had a James b 1811 so I discounted him.

Sorry I don't know William's profession.

Thank you so much for your help.
