Essex Lookup Requests / Re: Census search Rogers Family

marriage certificate: John Rogers and Tamar Davis.

OK, I've been working on this for a week now and thought I had managed to link the witness Benjamin Harris to the Tamar Davis side of things.
I found a Benjamin Harris born 1798 at Bocking, married to Elizabeth Belts in 1817 also at St. Marys, Bocking.
On looking further, I found them living North Street, St. Peter, Sudbury and living next door was the Rayner family: John, wife Sarah and kids: George, Charles, Joseph and Ellen. Anyway, Tamar Davis's parents were Thomas Davis and Tamar Rayner, so I thought I had found a link, but, however I tried to link these 2 Rayner families, I just couldn't manage it  ???

Well, that's the update and Its back to the drawing board for me   :P
Think I will simply scan other trees to see If I can get a jumpstart to discover where John Rogers 1799 comes from  ::)

Its a long shot, but I'm gonna try and find a connection between Jeremiah Harris and either either Tamar Davies's family or to a Rogers family which may give a clue to a sibling or other relative of John Rogers c1799  ::)
Firstly to make a list of candidates to be Jeremiah Harris,,,, I must be mad  ;D

dear all,
On studying the marriage entry further I see that the witness 'Abram Carter' appears on 4 of the 6 marriage entries, so I must assume he is some kind of payed witness? or spends a lot of time in the church clutching a quill  ::)
Looking at the second witness, its is definitely a sirname of 'Harris' and the transcription suggests 'Barry' with one 'r' but could also be 'Benny' with one 'r'. 
I am wondering if it may be 'Benj :' short for Benjamin? This being based on 'Abraham' being shortened to 'Ab:m' or am I looking too deeply?

I didn't realise that Family search had actual scans of parish Church entries, Fantastic! thanks for that.
Unfortunately John's parents are not mentioned, although maybe one of the witnesses may be related in some way? (Abram Carter and Bary Harris?)

Also many thanks for the death reg ref's.

the John Rogers c1800 born at Hatfield Heath, Essex seems to be eliminated as there is a John Rogers c1800, born Essex married to an Ann with 2x children living at Hatfield Broad Oak, Essex in the 1841 census (2,3 miles away).

Would the marriage entry at St. Mary's, Bocking, Essex (22-11-1818) mention the parents names?
Are these church records on line somewhere?

dear all,
I am so glad with the census results and interestingly enough on looking further on the census pages I find son George Rogers c1823 living with wife Sarah a little further down the street from 1851 until 1871,a  great insight into the family!!!

I am now trying to discover the parents of John Rogers c1799. Census details reveal that he was born c1801 in Essex (possibly Chelmsford or Bocking?) On searching I find 3 candidates:

i. John Rogers c1800 Hatfield Heath, Essex, parents: William and Melicent Rogers
ii John Rogers c 1801 Southminster Essex. parents Susan and John
iii. John Rogers c1799 Wethersfield, Essex, parents Susan and John

Again, any help, hints or advise are very welcome  ::)

dear all,
wow! fantastic, many thanks.
I have been searching for the father John who dies (although I did enter Tamar as spouse?)
Just shows that you shouldn't just concentrate on one family member, silly of me really as Tamar is a less common name and more likely to yield results,,, I know this  ::)

The name Must does appear somewhere in my tree, so will attempt to track him down  ::)

It is a vague link but:
William Rogers 1807 who marries Elizabeth Tiffen/Bocking in 1820 has brother George 1805, who in turn has a son George 1824. This George marries Charlotte Must 1828. Charlotte is daughter of James Must 1806, whose father is James Must 1781, whom I believe to be the James Must snr. Witness 3  ::)

I am sure if I search further there will be another link somewhere between the Rogers's and the Must's.
