1871 Amersham Lookup Request - Edge
« on: Wednesday 09 April 08 20:14 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I'm looking for an Arthur Edge should be aged anywhere between 2 and 6 and born in Amersham. Looking to find any parents as he may have had step-siblings. Parents should have been John Edge and Eliza Kingston (previously Shrimpton). Was there anybody else in the household??

James

Hi Ricky,

Thanks for the info. I think Eliza was married to a Kingston before she became an Edge. I believe she has other previous children as well actually. Thanks,

James
