Title: Wells & Field marriage - Ipsley
Post by: anniejukes on Saturday 27 July 13 09:54 BST (UK)
I have been researching the Pinfield Wells family for a long, long time and have made a little breakthrough but as usual leads to more questions.

Just wondering if anyone has access to Ipsley parish records to look up a marriage?  I have an illegitimate line to find out more about.

I have a marriage for Jane Wells and John Field on 03/1//1831.  I am really hoping there it mentions the fathers or even witnesses that might just lead me on to something else....fingers crossed that there is a Wells or Pinfield witness?

Can anyone help at all?

Thanks
Ann-Marie

Hello Ann-Marie
Ipsley is in Worcs.
I think this would be better served on their board.

Hi the Parish of Ipsley was in Warwickshire.  Ipsley parish is now part of Redditch, Worc's but only in more recent times.  For when I am looking for it was Warks.

Although I did mean to put it on the Worc's board as this is now where the records are being held.

Hi, thanks for the reply! That is the family.. Susannah had 2/3 illegitimate children William and Jane are definite and then possibly Luke.  I have managed to get all the census info and am hoping to try to find out more.
Have had numerous trips to records office and then came across Jane's marriage to John Field at home...need to get back to records office really.

How does Jane fit into this family. She can't be Jane b.1836 if she married in 1831.

In Census Louisa is down as a Widow.
And confusingly as Mother in Law in 1861 from memory. (oops 1851 born c 1778 Inkbprough, Worcs)
Are you saying she never married and had a William/Jane/Luke illegitimatley?

John Field appears to be with his mother in 1841 with his 2 children.No sign of Jane.
There's a death at Redditch 1838 for Jane Field aged 27 is this her?

Thanks for all of the replies!! Susannah had William and Jane and we think Luke as you say there is a christening for Luke in 1815.
William married Charlotte and on the census Susannah is living with them.  William's sister Jane seemed to have died by the 41 census so I think that burial you have found sounds about right.

I would love to find out if there is any other info for the marriages on the parish records that could give me any clues as to the father.

William seemed to us the surname Pinfield Wells where as Susannah and Jane were just Wells...

Hi Jack, thanks a lot for both of your replies!  I was hoping to see a Pinfield named as a witness but in true family history research style it keeps us guessing.

Thanks a lot for your help, will try to find other avenues to explore.
