William Harrison born 1791 in Kenilworth married a Mary Ward born 1795 in Radford Semele. They married 1816.
Marys father was Thomas Ward and mother Mary. I'm stuck finding their marriage.
Any help would be great please.

Possible sibling of Mary was Thomas baptised same place 8 Apr 1787, other possible siblings baptised later
-
Thank you, i had found Thomas, its the parents marriage I'm struggling with.
Its about this time frame I seem to hit a brickwall

I posted those other baptisms to give us a rough idea of the date they could have married
-
Found potentially some others too
Thomas 8 April 1787
Ann 20 feb 1791 died 29 April 1801
Elizabeth 22 June 1788

Hello
if this is the same family i have tried to work out over the last 10 years
i have a William Harrison who may have married a mary ward but no records ever found i do have them together in 1851 & 1861 census at grove place lemmington with a whole heap of children with the surname of Collerill have a parish record of a mary poss their daughter who married a john collerill on christmas day 1845 this has once again been put on the back burners

Thats definitely the family!
John Cotterill married Mary Harrison in 1845, they are my 3x great grandparents.
Stuck on William Harrison, Mary's father too.
Doesn't help that Cotterill was spelled in many different ways.

nicky are you aware that although it gives the occupation as labour they where labours on the canal in the term of canal workers/canal boatmen
-

i was born the last generation 7 generations in all into the Harrison line of working canal boatmen intresting to note that in the parish records for the wedding of John Cotterill & Mary Harrison parents are named as Tomas Cotterill & William Harrison William being my GGG Grandads brother also one of the sisters married George Duckett who is listed on this record as being a witness ll this made me sure they where within my extended tree & also dispite there being no mention of the connections to working canal boatmen that we where talking the same family members
