Greetings -

Regarding my previous post: "My research shows that their father was Allen (1750–1816) who married twice: 1st to Ann OLIVER (1752–1790) and 2nd to their mother, Sarah RIGBY (1772– )."

Since that post, I have discovered Ann (OLIVER) PICKERING's Will (probated 1823) in the collection England & Wales, Prerogative Court of Canterbury Wills, 1384-1858 on Ancestry.com.  Ann (OLIVER) PICKERING having a Will, indicates she outlived her husband Allen P., thus he would have had no 2nd marriage.  This means my previous theory is wrong and I currently have no idea for the identity of the parents of Allen PICKERING husband of Sarah RIGBY ((b. 1772).

Just wanted to clarify, so that I do not lead anyone astray with a flawed theory.

"I am researching Ann Pickering's line (parents Allen and Susannah). Allen is from the Wrockwardine area in Shropshire. I have traced them back to the mid 1700s. If you would like to see what I've compiled, please inbox me."

Greetings, WOLVERHAMPTON HIGGS -

I am interested in the Wrockwardine PICKERINGs, particularly the family of Allen PICKERING (b. 1804) who married Susannah CARTWIGHT.  I believe his sister, Ann PICKERING (b. 1805), was my 3rd great grandmother.  She married Joseph COOPER circa 1826 and moved to Pennsylvania, USA, by 1832, where Joseph was a Coal miner.

My research shows that their father was Allen (1750–1816) who married twice: 1st to Ann OLIVER (1752–1790) and 2nd to their mother, Sarah RIGBY (1772– ).  I show a faint DNA Match between a RIGBY descendant, my father and a cousin of his, so that gives me some reassurance that I am on the right track.

My user name on Ancestry is the same as on this site.  I would be interested in knowing if my research aligns with yours.  Sorry. I can't seem to work out how message on here.
