Searles family of Essex
« on: Tuesday 21 June 11 21:20 BST (UK) »
Hi, can anyone help me with tracing my Searles ancestors in Essex.  My GGF is Frederick Searles who married Susannah Fanny Williams.  Frederick's parents were William Searles born c1835 in Great Leighs Essex, his mother was Mary Phillips Searles (nee Lee) born c1834 in Bishops Stortford.  I am trying to ascertain whether William's parents were John and Elizabeth Searles (John born c1786 & Elizabeth born c1791) - I am not sure whether these were the parents as Elizabeth would have been 44 when she had William - I cannot remember where I got the details of John & Elizabeth from so I am unable to recheck my source.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Many thanks Rootschatters. :D

Hi Jim1, many thanks for your help - I think I may have to go to the Parish Registers to check his birth & who his parents were listed as. 

Once again many thanks :)
