Hi Tracey,

I can confirm the marriage of William DUNSTAN and Mary ROBERTS 8 Dec 1831 Wendron.

and this looks like his parents

Thomas DUNSTONE = Susannah JEFFERY 28 Apr 1794 Wendron

Mary appears to be a little younger than William given the census entry (adult ages were rounded down in 1841 therefore Mary listing as aged 30 means she was born between 1811 and 1816.

generally the marriage would take place in the brides home parish so this looks like Mary's baptism.

Mary ROBERTS was baptised 1 March 1812 Wendron parents Philip and Ann

and the parents marriage

Phillip ROBERTS = Ann PRYOR 9 Sep 1799 Wendron

Thanks to you both

I am still unsure if this is my William and Mary, as Mary's birth date on her memory card is 1809, but I guess there could have been a mistake made by who ever had it written (although I presume this was her daughter but sometimes mothers arent always open to their daughters!)
I shall try to nut this out a little further!

cheers Tracey

Hi Kris, I seem to have lost some replys to my look up! Some from yourself and another kind person whos name I cant remember, maybe Carol. This morning when I looked at my replies I had about 16 now I only have 5?
I dont know if I have inadvertively dumped them or if am not looking in the correct forum. Are you able to directme as some of the info seemed to fill in many blanks in my research. Sorry to be a bother,
Tracey

Hi Tracey,

I think you must have misread the number of replies. I am sure this is all that was in this thread. I thought it may have been one of your other threads where you have 16 replies and went to look. Got sidetracked by your Sussex thread, which I had not seen before along the way. Anyway back on task and I find none of your threads have 16 replies. The ones I have been involved in certainly seem to be all there. They don't usually go missing, honest. You would not be able to delete them yourself so you have done made a mistake and lost them    - all I can think of is that you must have somehow misraed the number.

Cheers Kris
