william robinson - trying to find his family
« on: Sunday 18 October 15 12:18 BST (UK) »
William marries Sarah White in Great Eversden in 1820.  No idea of who is he, when born or even  from where.
Can anyone offer any ideas??

William is my 3rd great granddad.

Thanks
Martin

Hi
Cannot find him on 1841. Traced him as father of William (2nd gg) and Edith.
William senior and Sarah i lose after marriage and William a complete blank beforehand.

Where and when was his son William born.

Presumably Sarah is daughter of William & Editha

Yes you are right abt Sarahs parents.
Son William 1822-1851 married Harriet Pett
Daughter Edith 1826 married Robert Sheldrick

William Robinson / Robenson before marriage a mystery

No wonder I couldn't find Edith I see she was living with Robert in 1851 prior to their 1854 marriage  :) 

Who were the witnesses to the childrens marriages.  Do either of them state that their father is deceased.

They will not necessarily show that the father is deceased, it will depend as to whether they ever supplied the information. It is not required.

They will give an occupation though and that may be very helpful.
