How have you got such precise dates when you seem to know virtually nothing about the couple?  What is your interest in them - are you descended from one of their children?

 :D Thank you ShaunJ and AVM for your prompt attention.

I was given a book to read today -a history of a friend's family. On opening it I thought the initial family list was somewhat sparse with e.g. born Surrey -without no detail of where.Married Mary-Surrey et al.

I have compiled my own Family History in the context of British History and as my grandparents and father were born in Surrey knew their were more details available. At present I cannot access them until I visit the West Aust Genealogical Soc. so was grateful for any details which I shall type up and give to my friend as an insert inside the dust cover.

Much appreciation to you both for your prompt replies.
