John Groves
« on: Sunday 22 October 17 20:17 BST (UK) »
Have hit another brick wall on my search so any advice or help if anyone has the same ancestor would be great, I have got back to the following ancestor if I have followed my tree back correctly but now I am stuck, have gathered info from a few other trees that suggests he's parents were called John and Sarah but I cant confirm any of it

John Groves
1788–1863
Birth 10 NOV 1788 • Whixley, Yorkshire, England
Death 1863 • Wilberfoss, Yorkshire, England

Thanks

Thanks, seems to be a lot of Sarah's, looks like mother is Sarah and if he had sister that is also Sarah makes you wonder why he married a Sarah, must of been confusing at family get together's
