Hi Amy,

This is a shame: absolutely zilch matching the criteria you gave.  I found a William Bevis m Elizabeth Rogers 1829 in Hursley in Hampshire, but nothing on James Fordham and Sarah Alice Baker. :'( Sorry.

Nell

Nevermind, thank you for looking Nell.

By the way, where can I get a copy of the BVRI myself?

I wonder if you'd mind having a look for a birth of a Frederick Thomas born either 1865/66 in Liverpool, he has done my head in for months, and if possible a marriage between Frederick Thomas and a Sarah Ann Jane Powell between 1892 and 1900,I can't find anything about him, and I'm almost at the point of hiring a professional in order to keep me from going insane.
I know you'll probably be inundated with lookup requests, so whenever you get the chance I would be very grateful.
Regards,
Viv.

 :(  I couldn't find a Frederick Thomas for you in the BVRI the closest was

THOMAS, Charles Frederick   Christening
   Sex:   Male
    Christening Date:   25 Jul 1869   Recorded in:   Warrington, Lancashire, England
      Father:   Frederick THOMAS
    Mother:   Margaret   
 Source:   FHL Number 1469047   Dates:   1849-1869

The only entry for Lancashire within a few years of yours ... as you can also see its not Liverpool either ... sorry.
