St John's Preston Parish records.
« on: Friday 18 December 09 16:42 GMT (UK) »
Does Anyone have access to these records? I am looking for a marriage of Michael Ward to Anne Helme on 18th April 1836 to Anne Helme.I am intrigued by Michael as although Anne appears to have numerous children by him Michael does not appear on any census. Anne lists Michael on the Children's birth certificates as Father. Did this marriage take place and is there any information that might lead me to find out more about him?

Hi,

The marriage is shown on the IGI as an extracted record (taken from the parish register) so it should be accurate.

If you live near to an LDS Family History centre you can order the relevant film and check the entry.

What was Michaels occupation on the childrens birth certificates?  It may help to narrow him down.

Thanks for the messages. Michael was listed on any birth certificates as a hand loom weaver, but I never found him on any census.
