Thanks Peter - that is great detail.
I will attempt to get Elizabeth's maiden name fom a post-1837 child. However, for a complete record I would be grateful if you could take a look in your marriage records of an early 1830's wedding around Disley - do they extend into Derbyshire?
Also, I have another Bennett 1841/51/61 census search request
Abraham m. Sarah Wainwright May 16 1858 Macclesfield.
Yesterday I received Sarah's birth cert. from Cheshire East CRO.
Sarah Wainwright born Apr 24 1839 Pott Shrigley
Father James Wainwright of Pott Shrigley, mother Frances Bennett
Also IGI has James Wainwright m. Frances Bennett Feb 3 1834 Prestbury
I cannot find James or Frances in the 1871 or 1881 census.
It would be great to to have the detailed picture of the family from 1841/51/61 census.
All the best
Roy
