« on: Monday 06 June 05 13:10 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Elijah Ager born c 1804 and Ephraim Ager born c 1835.

Any Ager in Birdbrook or Sturmer would be a great help

Thanks JohnA

Hi John,
I forgot you e-mail address which you gave me at the Ager reunion in Castle Camps.
I have been trying to link your Ager's to mine without success at the moment.
Have you found Elijah's parents yet?

Regards.

Hi Danielle,I have a copy of the parish record for Elijah and Harriet.They were married by Banns at Stamboune village church so there is no marriage license.As they were both under 21 it just says that they were married by parents consent and does not give names.They both signed with an"x".The witnesses,Davis and Jarvis I think are local people who could write.Iam pursuing ELIJAH through the Essex County Council Records office which seems a good source and looking at babtisms for Birdbrook,Stambourne and Sturmer where Ephraim was born.Also 1831 and 1821 census.I hope to visit the records office soon.
John

Hi John,
That's great news that you found were they were married.
I have some papers from another researcher who was looking for a John Ager/Agar, it might have your John.

Really curious if our families are related as my GGGgrandfather Isaac b 1777-81 was born Steeple bumpstead[ all the census state this] but still can not find him.

Good luck at Essex Record Office.
Shall be in touch.
Danielle
