Hi,
Is anyone researching CHARLOTTE BAKER who married Charles Broadbent at St Mary's church in Brewood in 1843.
She was born around 1818 but it is not clear where her birthplace was. Census returns mention Tanworth, Warwickshire while others mention placenames in Worcestershire.
They had five children:
Charles b.1845
Thomas b.1846
William b.1850
Mary Ann b.1852
Alfred Edward b.1856
Charles and Charlotte spent their married life in Wolverhampton with Charles employed as a coach painter.
Thanks

Hi Donna,
Further research (GRO marriage certificate) has confirmed that Charlotte Baker married Charles Broadbent at St Mary's church, Brewood on the 11th May 1843.
The Warwickshire Baptisms records for 1813-1906 include the baptism of Charlotte on 21 June 1818. This took place at Tanworth-in-Arden (rather than Tamworth). The parents were Thomas (a labourer) and Anne and they lived at Astbury Heath in the parish of Tanworth-in-Arden. I can see an Aspley Heath near to Tanworth but not Astbury Heath.
Thank you again for your help. Any further information from yourself or anyone else about her whereabouts in 1841 and her parents, e.g. birth dates, marriage would be greatly appreciated.
