Maybe. Sarah was a name used in the family. When was Sarah Edwards baptized and where? Martino

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Lindridge marriage registers 1836

My ancestor wrote: "On returning home between Eardiston and Lindridge meet with a chaise containing the new married couple Mr. J. Smith & Late Miss Mytton, the ceremony having taken place at Lindridge this day . Revd. Mr. Powell, the officiating clergyman, got quite mellow as well as some of the other company." Colourful, no?

That's great! Thanks. The vicar drank too much at the reception, according to my ancestor! Martinom

Ah, thanks so much! I should have cancelled this post, as I looked up the Lindridge register myself a while back and found the answer to my question! Thanks nevertheless.
Good hunting!!

Thank you. Yes, I do know about Blurb, and in fact have two public books with them - "A stained glass Bible" and "With an eye on the Via de la Plata: Seville to Salamanca". However, I have a (conventional) publisher lined up for the diaries, the two to be published in one volume, and am currently working on the biographical index - the deadline date is 30 November, by when I've also got to assemble 50 illustrations - from somewhere! So, must get back to work! (Yes, I know I am VERY lucky!!) Martinom

Thanks for that. My ancestor was Peter (Davis), and I'm working on the 2nd of two diaries now. The first - a travel diary - is published online at http://www.freerangephotography.co.uk/pdtd.pdf . Martinom

In my biographical index, I was going to put: "Dickins John – (born c1776) A retired army captain, subsequently a farmer, he and his wife Ann had six children." Is that about all I need to say? No knowledge of the death date I suppose? Martinom

My ancestor's diary for 14th Jan. 1837 states: "Call on Captain Dickens at Trysull a person who has in part the letting of Sir J.’s farms. Get the refuse of the farm called Wrottesley Lodge, provided Sir John had not already promised it." I don't know if this helps much! Martinom

On 7th May 1836, Elizabeth Mytton of Lindridge parish was married to John Smith. I am anxious to track down the clergyman who officiated, a Rev. Powell. Is there any initial given for the Rev. Powell on the register I wonder? Martinom
LATER - now problem solved! So query no longer needed! Martinom
