i wouldnt take any notice fo the Buckland connection, i have seen the complete parish transcripts and there is notihng in there about mark and Elizabeth

Elizabeth did not know where she was born in the 1851 census taken in Frimley

you are correct with Mark and Sarahs children, they also had a daughter called Matilda, she married Samson Hoadley and shows up travelling alongside other Parkers in Washington rd Cheam in 1881 and in Woking in later census returns

their son Frederick, born Colnbrook 1851 Colnbrook near Hayes Middlesex was my Paternal Great Grand Father

if you would like some fo the records i will happily email them to you if you let me have your address

regards

Neil

Definitely Henry Ayres as the father of the bride

Mark Parker as father of the Groom

you can find it on www.familysearch.org or get a certificate by using www.freebmd.org.uk

chidren i found on the census returns were

Mark born 1868 Redhill
John 1870 East Grinstead
Leonard 1875 Cheam
Mary Ann 1875 Cheam (twins?)
William 1877 Cheam
Sarah 1880 Kent
Fred 1891 Cheam
Louisa 1883 Cheam
Dela 1886 Cheam
Alice 1888 Cheam

Alice Ayres was born in about 1845 at Hadlow near Tunbridge wells in kent

hope this is useful

i have at last found out the roots of Mark Parker, i have his baptism record from Ashford in Middlesex in 1841, funny thing is there is nothing in BMD

I know that his parents were my GG grandparents, Mark and Sarah Parker

Mark born 1819 Ash Common to travelling chimney sweep Mark Parker and his wife Elizabeth, they were living in a caravan at Longerend farm, Ash

I cannot find any record of Mark or Elizabeths births, i did find Elizabeth in the 1851 census living in Frimley next door to her daughter Dinah grainger (nee Parker), she died the same year, her place of birth is Unknown

Sarah and Mark or their son Mark dont turn up in any census returns until 1871, by this time Marlk senoir had died in 1866 in Epsom

Sarah was born in Frensham, Surrey in 1821 to John and Sarah Wilson, John was a "Chair Bottomer" from East Acton

Mark junior turns up in every census from 1871 to 1911 either lving in Cheam or sometimes on Epsom Common, with wife Alice and loads of kids, they had 11, 2 of which died in infancy

Mark and Alice were married in Claygate in 1865

the only other record i have of Mark Parker senior is at his daughter Matildas wedding in Barking in the 1850's, she married Samson Hoadley from a travellers family which originally came from Leicester

I have a tree for the Parkers going back to the late 1700's if anyone is interested
i have a very interesting piece from a Surrey newspaper which tells of the death of sarah from a binge drinking session, the headline is "warning to all drunkards", quite a thing from in 1882 i should think, it tells how she was taken home from the pub in Frimley on a hand cart by her daughter and left in a chair where they found her in the morning

Hi there

i am afraid you really have to be very lucky and hope they were caught in a census, if not parish records and free BMD are the only option

let me know if there is any particular person or family and i will see if i have anything on them
