James and Eliza married in 1848.
Presumably these are the James Steer Jennngs and the Eliza Ann Hill?
Whereabout is all this taking place?
Seems like you have earlier info already, as you have these people's parents and their marriages.
For later info - what have you got already? Have you found the family in any censuses?
We are happy to help you look, but don't want to spend time going over old ground and looking for info you already have.

I see that you tacked a query on to someone else's thread a couple of days ago , asking when Eliza Ann Hill went to Australia. As far as I can see she was born there - 21 Mar 1852 Adelaide, parents John Hill and Eliza Ann Snell. We can look for the arrival of her parents if you haven't found it in the meantime.
-
I think you meant to say John Hill and Eliza Ann Snell married in 1848 ?
17 Feb 1848 St James Church Adelaide John Hill 27 and Eliza Snell 27.
-
Not sure if you have this, but it looks as if James Steer Jennings had a sister, Elizabeth Steer Jennings bap. 10 Aug 1844, St Just in Penwith, Cornwall. Parents John and Jane Jennings

Elizabeth Steer Jennings married Henry Boatheris/Botheras on 17 Dec 1864 in Mintaro, Clare, South Australia

I have found a lot of info about John Jennings and Jane steer. Birth.marriage children and immigration they were married in 1840 - st just pen with in 1840. Arrived in SA 1848 aboard poictiers
John Hill. Born 1820. Arrived in SA aboard Lady Brice 1846.
Married ELIZA Ann Snell in 1848 . They had a daughter ELIZA ANN who married James Steer in 1874 in Moonta.
I am having trouble tracing Eliza Ann Snell. Her parents are John Snell and Ann (buckingham) . Married 1814 Linkinhome ,Cornwall.
From what I've found. It looks like John Snell arrived in Tasmania in 1842 aboard Sir Charles Napier. Then arrived in SA aboard Timbo in 1845. But Eliza Ann Snell is never mentioned . In 1842 she would have been 22/23.

I don't think this is going to add much info, but whilst searching for info on Eliza Ann Snell, I came across this article which mentions a Snell, Jennings and Botharris (elections for councillors) http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article110368030

Just came across this :
Arrived Tasmania 17 Feb 1843 on the Sir Charles Napier
Eliza Ann Snell , dairymaid , going to Mr Crombie , Sandy Bay, religion Wesleyan ,native place Tavistock , Devon'
also travelling : Susan Snell , Mary Ann Snell, Elizabeth Snell, all going to different employment and all from Devon.
This might be worth bearing in mind . Note there are no ages given on this list.

Could you give me the source of the 17 February 1843 arrival and going to mr crombie ! Thanks

That might link to the baptism of Eliza Ann Snell at the Wesleyan Chapel, tavistock, Devon (born 10 Apr 1820, bap 30 Apr 1820) parents John and Ann Snell
