Churchdown records
« on: Tuesday 01 November 11 12:21 GMT (UK) »
Totally stuck - Help please !!
James Flowers (abt 1801) married Elizabeth Worsley (abt.1797 Churchdown) 24 Aug 1829, (possibly Churchdown or Cheltenham).
Was she a widow or single at the time of her marriage ?  She would have been age 32.  I cannot find a baptism record on LDS site for her.  In 1841 they are living in cheltenham with their two sons.  James is not from the county. I think he died in 1851.
Elizabeth Flowers is in the Slaters Commercial Directory Cheltenham 1858-9 as living Southampton Street, Cheltenham. She is listed under Nobility Gentry and Clergy.
