Edward Smedley and Jemima Hodgett?

[Dizzifish]

Hello all.....

Marriage at Wysall - 24th Dec 1850
EDWARD SMEDLEY & JEMIMA HODGETT

Baptisms  Keyworth
JEMIMA HODGET - 2nd may 1830 - parents John & Ann - abode Keyworth;  fathers occupation Blacksmith

But which is the correct Edward ?

EDWARD SMEDLEY - 27th Sept 1818 - parents Edward & Hannah - abode Wysall - father Labourer

EDWARD SMEDLEY - 14th Dec 1823 - parents William & Mary - abode Wysall - father Labourer

the Edward Smedley son of William and Mary sounds more like it..cant find him anywhere obvious in 1841 though...

Edit :- there is a Smedley family in Wysall headed by a William and Mary in 1841, but if Mary was meant to be born in 1794 as per the 1851 census, then the 1841 Mary is 11 years too young.  No Edward with them in 1841 though.  Will go back and look at the 1851 again just in case Mary's age has been transcribed wrong.

Edit again:  Mary's age in 1851 gives her born 1794 so unless the dates are way out between 1841 and 1851, this family possibly isn't the one we are looking for.

Many, many thanks!

So do I have the wrong Edward?

E. and J.'s daughter, Alice (Lucy Alice?) b. 1869 Lockington, Leicestershire married Harry Cook b. 1869 Derbyshire

Alice and Harry are meant to be the parents of my husband's grandfather.

I might have got it all wrong! LOL!

Hello...

It might be better to start again with what you know is a fact....do you know the date of Alice & Harry Cook's marriage and where?

Can you give a census where they are both on to see if we can work it out from there?

Going by the latest available census, I'd say we're on the right track with this family.

The marriage cert for Edward and Jemima should clarify who Edward's father was.

Hi, Tati!

How do I find the Marriage cert.? Do you know if there is somewhere I can find it online?

I am American and am researching my husband's English and Welsh ancestors! Enjoying it, but it's hard work having to do it all from over here!

Thanks, all! I truly appreciate the help!

I don't know whether Keyworth marriages are online somewhere - google doesn't seem to find anything. Unless someone on here has access to the records, you might have to order the certificate.

FreeBMD www.freebmd.org.uk finds this reference:
December quarter 1850, Loughboro registration district, volume 15 page 263
Edward Smedley to possibly Jemima Hodgett
