William Holloway c1794 East Ham
« on: Wednesday 10 July 24 07:16 BST (UK) »
I'm hoping to find birth and or marriage records for William Holloway c1794-1870 East Ham

William was a farmer in East Ham and I have located him in the census records 1841-1861.
1841 Census
South Street, East Ham, West Ham, London & Essex, England
William   Holloway   Male   45   1796   Farmer Essex, England
Barbara   Holloway   Female   45   1796   
Sarah   Holloway   Female   20   1821   Essex, England
Barbara   Holloway   Female   20   1821   Essex, England
Mary   Holloway   Female   20   1821   Essex, England
William   Holloway   Male   15   1826   Essex, England

Later census records show his wife Barbara was born c1796 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Their daughters Barbara and Sarah were born 1818 so they would've married c 1817.

I'm hoping to find William and/or Barbara's parents/maiden name

TIA
Jane

Have you seen the 1849 marriage to Barbara Bowers at St Martin in the Fields? (William Holloway, farmer of East Ham)

It's a bit late for my chap Shaun, as the children I've identified so far were born earlier:

Barbara & Sarah (twins?) b 1818
Mary Ann b 1820
William Robert b 1822

Thanks,
Jane

They would not be the first couple to bring up a family before they got married.

Thanks Trish, very helpful!

I'll have to think about the 1849 marriage Shaun, and I might need to check the certificate!

Cheers,
Jane
