Title: Marriage Nathaniel Gifford and Ann Russ
Post by: turnerjr on Thursday 01 November 18 05:47 GMT (UK)
Hi,

I am looking for the marriage of Nathaniel Gifford and Ann Russ 1830-1838, probably in Devon.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
John

Nathaniel’s will made on 24 April 1838 mentions his “dear wife Anne” who is executrix along with Nathaniel’s nephew George Mitchell Gifford.

Nathaniel was buried at Littleham on 5 September 1838, and probate was granted on 28 October 1838.

So Clara’s middle name Fortune is after Nathaniel’s previous (late) wife.

Ann on the 1851. If it’s her she has a second daughter:
