Just had a look at my Abraham Parkes 1799 married to Ann Rose St Thomas Dudley 4/11/1821 and noticed A Jopseph Parkes1794 marriage St Thomas Dudley to a Hannah Rose 07/11/1814 wondered if we might have two brothers and sisters marrying. Probably another hopeless case of too many people having the same name. Parkes father and mother Thomas and Sarah any thoughts on this.

hmmm.... those 2 are certainly brothers Abraham and Joseph sons to Thomas and Sarah

your Abraham as you say marries Ann but ...

is the Joseph Parkes who marries in 1814 a Hannah Rose your Joseph and are they sisters.....dunno!
have you looked at the marriage to see who the witnesses were?



also how sure are you that Thomas and Sarah are the parents of Abraham?
as there is a submitted entry that has his burial in 1799
are any of the kids called Thomas for Abraham?

Abraham Parkes
Christening: 03 MAR 1799 Rowley Regis, Stafford,

Death:
Burial: 07 APR 1799

Father: Thomas Parkes

Abrahams parentsThomas and Sarah Parkes seems a bit shaky now, obviously needs more work.
