Sarah Akehurst 1786 Milton by Sittingbourne
« on: Friday 24 August 12 16:20 BST (UK) »
Sarah Akehurst baptised 26th Feb 1786 Milton next Sittingbourne Kent

I have recently discovered this lady to be my 3x Great grandmother

The IGI gives her parents as Edward Akehurst & Frances

I have hit a brickwall as far as her parent's marriage is concerned & whether she had any siblings

Can anybody help please? 

Thanks

I found the marriage on familysearch   https://familysearch.org/#start by searching Edward Akehurst as you had specified with spouse Frances, familysearch found the alternative surname. This also worked for me on the IGI site https://familysearch.org/search/collection/igi .   

The entry I found with Frances name as Swain does have the batch number M01680-5 that I stated.   The batch number you are quoting is from entering the site from the IGI link (above)  and relates to the Frances Swan entry, this entry on the site I looked at has the batch number as I05439-3.
