Searching for parents
« on: Thursday 28 January 21 12:36 GMT (UK) »
William Harrison born 1791 in Kenilworth married a Mary Ward born 1795 in Radford Semele. They married 1816.

Marys father was Thomas Ward and mother Mary. I'm stuck finding their marriage.
Any help would be great please.

I posted those other baptisms to give us a rough idea of the date they could have married

Thats definitely the family!
John Cotterill married Mary Harrison in 1845, they are my 3x great grandparents.

Stuck on William Harrison, Mary's father too.

Doesn't help that Cotterill was spelled in many different ways.
