ARC TBC - henry weeks marriage

Post by shoos »

Hi all, first post asking for help so hope Ihave placed it corretly!

I have a marriage for Henry Weeks, born abt 1801, to sarah elizabeth phillips in 1861. He is 60, she is 20! I have found him in the 1841 census as Wicks, with children and wife Sarah, but obviously not the same Sarah.

I have tried to find a marriage entry for Henry and Sarah, but with no success!

Anyone have any ideas?

thanks for any help

Steve.

Sorry newbie mistakes in posting not quite enough info.

I have 1861 residence in chelsea, 1841 might not be him.

have found 1861 marriage to sarah elizabeth phillips

daughter Dora jane weeks born 1825, married in kensington & chelsea 1846.

Sarah elizabeth cannot be Dora's mother so looking for her mother. Dora has a brother Albert morgan henry born 1861.

I do my main research on ancestry, but have hit blanks so trying other avenues.

Thanks for the prompt initerest peter, anything else I can give you to help?

looked into 1841 census and not sure it is right.

chelsea
henry b 1801
sarah b 1805

dora b 1823
barkly b 1830
james b 1832
morgan 1835


some matches but not convinced myself. Like to double check things, a result of an early mistake tracing to generations of a completly different family!
