What confuses me is that Edward here https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... ver=503726
is the uncle of Thomas that is buried with him .See this topichttps://www.genealogyforum.co.uk/f ... fb09a038dc

Could it be that the age is out for Edward or is it a different Edward?

The burials are correct for the ones on BCC , i dont understand the Edward and Phebe connection

I was looking for possible christening for a Jemima.

Gospelend in both that Christening and 1841 census?

Strange question but are the pictures of the 2 graves a tomb with the names of Family on ?

I may be having a bad day but if Edward born about 1769 was baptised 1776 then who is his mother , the baptsim says Edward and Mary but Edward 1743 didnt get married to the first Mary until 1771.

Wish i had never started this.

I am getting really confused

This is Stephen https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... =218254736

There is this Edward and Martha in Tettenhall

1841 Compton Lane Tettenhall Regis With Tettenhall Clericorum
Edward Cox 55 Sand Merchant
Martha Cox 55
William Cox 9
Ellen Hale 10 F S
All born in County
Ages are way out

Does anyone agree that Edward 1776 Married Martha Bennett and that the grave of Edward and Martha are the same people
