Thomas Wells was baptised on November 28th 1790 in Lower Heyford to his parents William and Mary Wells.
Thomas married Sarah Ebbern also in Lower Heyford on December 5th 1811.
In the presence of them was John Wells (presumebly some relation to Thomas) and Esther Castel.
I cannot find a death for Thomas or Sarah however and cannot find any other records for them either apart from their 2 Children’s baptisms.
Mary Wells in 1812 and Susanna Wells in 1814. All in Lower Heyford.
Can anybody find any death for Thomas or Sarah? Many thanks

Have you looked for Thomas & Sarah on the 1841/51 census to narrow down any search for their deaths?
Who did Mary & Susanna marry & when? Did they marry in Oxfordshire?

Who did Mary & Susanna marry & when
I have tried looking for them in those census’ with no avail. Susanna never got married I do not believe but her she had many children with her boyfriend Richard Gadney. Mary married a man by the name of Uriah Hain.

If they only had the two children that might indicate one or both parents died soon after.
Have you looked for a remarriage for Sarah Wells?

I had a look for a remarriage and nothing showed up for me. So I dont think she remarried.

Susanna never got married I do not believe but her she had many children with her boyfriend Richard Gadney.
Where the children registered as Gadney or Wells? What were their names & birthyears?
