Hi - Is there anyone who could look up a marriage for me?
John Richardson (of Shenton, Leicestershire) was a widow on his 2nd marriage certificate in 1843, Claybrook, Leics. He was born around 1800 in Shenton, so I assume he married between 1820 and 1840.
If anyone can give me details of his 1st marriage and when his 1st wife died, I would be extremely grateful.
Many thanks for your time and trouble
Neil (York, England)

Can you confirm re-marriage was 1843? Nothing on freebmd

Thanks for the reply. I have seen the 1841 census and he appears to be living as man and wife with Sarah. He actually does not marry Sarah until 1843. I have their marriage certificate. I do not know why he is pretending in 1841.
Cheers - Neil

See my reply above - what was Sarah's surname

Just found marriage - 1844 not 1843 and she was Sarah Hipwell

Sarah was a widower too. She was born Pratt but was married to George Hipwell. He died in 1839.
