Look up request please - Kirby, St.Mary's Warwick
« on: Saturday 26 September 09 14:22 BST (UK) »
Kirby is my maiden name.  I have got back to my ggg/gfather William Kirby b. 1795 Harbury Warwickshire.  1841 census gives him as married to Jane and father of son Wm 1 so I guess he was married around the late 1830's but I cant find any record.  1851 census gave me Jane's surname West and I have managed to trace her family but have absolutely nothing on the Kirby's back from William.   All activity seems to be St. Marys Warwick.  Anything would be wonderful.

Hi Jackie
             The IGI gives the marriage date as 31 Aug 1835 St Mary's, Warwick.

             The 1851 census gives William's age as 36 and Jane's age as 52 a big age gap, unless his age is wrong.

              I can't find a christening for William in Harbury.
