Title: Emma Bowler Chalfont St. Peter marriage 1882
Post by: decor on Monday 08 August 22 14:59 BST (UK)
Emma Bowler (born 1856 in Seer Green or Chalfont St. Peter) married John Green in the March quarter of 1882 in Eton registration district.
I think John Green is probably the general labourer aged 22 born Oxfordshire in the 1881 census in Chalfont St. Peter.

I'm interested in digging deeper into John Green's background and would love to see if there is information about his father on the marriage certificate.
Does anyone have access to the Chalfont St. Peter records?

All the best and thanks for taking the time to read this
Andy :-)

Yes, exactly.
I'm looking into them as part of my research into DNA matches.

Hi, I think this is one of those situations where you might have to bite the bullet and purchase the marriage certificate. Even knowing his dob possibly 5.6.1858 is not helping.

Thanks for the reply and checking for me.
As it's for a DNA match and I'm not sure if this is the link between us, I'll just have to leave it for now and maybe come back to it at some point in the future.

All the best
Andy

I did a bunch of research on the families of Seer Green a few years back for the local history society.

I do have Emma on that family tree, although not her marriage yet probably because she went rogue and moved to Chalfont St Peter! But I do have some ancestry for her taken from local parish records if it is of interest.

Thanks for your kind offer. I'm only really looking at the marriage right now, to find out any possible information about John's father.
All the best from the seaside  ;D
