Rutland / Re: Fanny Sneath born Stamford c.1860-1865?

I have an Elizabeth Sneath born about 1809 in Ayston, Rutland. She married William George Gee in 1830. She is in my family tree so there maybe a link. Familysearch.org reference KHHK-4JK

Leicestershire / Re: Gee's in Leicestershire

In Drobbly's post earlier he mentions that his ancestor William Gee married Elizabeth Sneath in Ayston on 1 June 1830. According to the Family Search site a William Gee married an Elizabeth Evertt in Ayston on 31 May 1830. The same site also states that William Gee married Elizabeth Sneath on 31 May 1830. I guess that they can't both be correct. Ayston was too small a village to have such a coincidence surely!

I appreciate that Family Search may not always be correct, given the source of some of its records, but I'd be interested in the provenance of Drobbly's source because if both are intended to be the same marriage, one of the records must be incorrect.

I ask because I believe that this William Gee was one of my great great grandfathers.

cheers

The Sneath marriage is correct, one of the sons had a middle name of Sneath, sorry it took so long to reply

Found more information, one of my ancestors wrote a rather good book about his life in the army, peninsula war. John Green used by historians because of its detail from a foot solders view. The vicissitudes of a soldier's life
