Title: William Francis Parker
Post by: finnisfinder on Thursday 01 August 19 16:23 BST (UK)
 I am looking for parents of William Francis. He was baptised 24th August 1794 Roydon St Peter's Essex. Parents William Parker and Sarah Parker.
I would like to know the maiden name of Sarah. Assuming they were married in that same parish.

Thank you
Maggie

 Thanks for that information. I have managed to find some of it but not familiar with Essex parishes.

  I'm doing this for a neighbour who will be so pleased when I pass it on.

 Maggie.
