I am looking for the marriage of the parents of Elizabeth Lucy JENNER christened Jan. 1831 at St. Johns Sub Castro, Lewes. Her father was William JENNER and mother Elizabeth (unknown). Elizabeth senior became Elizabeth SPURLING. In 1861 her birthplace is recorded as LEWES, in 1871 as MONMOUTH. In 1881 she is Elizabeth SPURLAND, b. MONMOUTH. If no marriage to William Jenner can be found can anyone find her on the 1841 census where she will be Elizabeth Jenner with a daughter Elizabeth Lucy aged 10, probably in LEWES

Thank you very much Chris. That should help a lot. I can't believe how quickly you replied, don't you ever sleep? We all need you to take care of yourself.

hi Chota
Glad you liked the info.
You asked "don't you ever sleep"
Yes I do, at least 7 hours every night, (as my statistics show) but I was just off to bed when I spotted your query - so read it and had to answer it as all the info was in the hard drive of my laptop.
Can't rest properly knowing that there is a query that needs to be answered
But thanks for your concerns ;D

Hi, just started researching my family history, and leads bring me to Elizabeth Shiffner Watkins, married to William Jenner. (My family line descends through Emma Jenner).
From New Zealand I am now struggling to find any further information on ancestry through this line.
Are you able to provide any further detail in this area please?
Thanks Scott.
