Title: John Collins b abt 1804 Wisbech Cambridgeshire
Post by: Superfly on Saturday 26 October 19 19:06 BST (UK)

Hi
Can anybody help please I am looking for a marriage for John Collins b abt 1804 Wisbech Cambridgeshire and Anne. The 1851 census Wisbech St Peters states he was married to Anne and his son Joseph was born in 1831, so I am presuming the marriage would have been about 1828-1830. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated
Regards
Superfly

I see from 1851 census that John was actually born ca.1804 Wakefield, Yorkshire and this is presumably his baptism:

John Collins bp.26/12/1803 Wakefield, Yorkshire, son of Joseph and Ann.

Also the 1851 census gives wife, Ann's age as 39y and b. Wisbech..

Something to ponder..

Cambs FHS Bap Index has Ann Shepherd 1812 Wisbeach St Peter
