Sarah Gibbons & John Wesley Marriage?
« on: Tuesday 19 April 11 14:54 BST (UK) »
Looking for info on the marriage of Sarah Gibbons born 1800 Hamsterly, Durham County and John Wesley born 1798-99 Saint Matthew, Walsall Staffordshire.
Believed to have been married in England before immigrating to N. America.
John born 1824, death cert. only lists Halifax as place of birth, could be anywhere.
Marcella born 1826 United States
Mary Jane born 1831 Ontario, Canada
Elizabeth 1836 Ontario, Canada
Margaret 1837 Ontario, Canada

Any info would be great. Thanks

Should have added Sarah's parents John Gibbons born 1865 and Jane Robinson  before 1780 both died after 1816.  Married 1798 Hamsterly.  No record of John Wesley's parents.

I have most of the info. for Sarah and John Wesley family but have not been able to find anything about who John Wesley (1799) parents where.  Their son John born in Halifax we don't know when they immigrated or where to if he was born in Halifax, England, Halifax, Nova Scotia or there is also Halifax's in the U.S.  Thought it might be in the States as his sister was born in the U.S. but have found no documentation.

Mary Jane Youngs is my g g grandmother.  Young was her second marriage, 1st  marriage to Jacob Nelson in 1850 Ontario Canada.  I have been able to trace John and Sarah family once they came to Canada. 

Thanks for your info.
