Hi Everyone I have a Hannah Hanson who married Charles Grover in 1824 >From census it would appear Hannah was born in Ashampstead about 1798. Although the banns for their marriage were read in St Mary Burghfield (where they later lived) they actually married on 3 Jun 1824 at Bradfield Church Berkshire My problem-- there are TWO Hannah Hanson's born in Ashampstead to different parents, one in 1798 d/o William & Elizabeth and one in 1799 d/o John & Ann and I don't know which one could be mine Hannah's age on census is more consistant with the one born in 1798, she named one of her children William and there is a William Hanson on the Ashampstead 1851 census who states he comes from Bradfield Berkshire. Please can anyone help? Are there any transcripts of marriages from Bradfield Church which might tell me who the witnessess might be? regards MOIRA
