Hello Barbara, I think the Church you mean is Reading St Laurence, there is no St Clarence in Reading. Berkshire Family History Society have transcribed the Reading St Laurence Parish Registers and made these available on CD. These can be purchased online, see www.berksfhs.org.uk , go to the shop and put Reading St Laurence into the 'Product Search' You will find the marriage there and much more. Jocie Hello everyone: I have just joined this list and am seeking anyone who has information about the above named couple. The details are: John BROWN, born about 1810 married at St. Clarence, Reading about 1832 to Harriett SMITH, born about 1807. They had seven children: Eliza 1831-1840 Sarah 1832-1901 Mary Ann 1834-?? (Was not on passenger list to NZ) Ellen 1836-1906 Harriett 1838-1840 William 1840-1876 John 1843-1927 All children were born in Reading with the exception of John who was born in New Zealand John and Harriett and three children (Sarah, Ellen, William) immigrated to New Zealand in 1842. I have located the family in the 1841 census, although the father is at a different address. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hello, Does this CD have the same information as that which was on the St Laurence Reading baptisms fiche? If so, then there are no baptisms for a John and Harriet Brown on it, so don't waste your money, Barbara. In fact, the 6 children's baptisms are online on the IGI for Reading St Giles http://www.familysearch.org/eng/ although the marriage doesn't appear to be.
