Hi everyone I just found out about this list so sorry you have all drawn the "short straw" - I intend to stay around for a while!! My GGG Grandfather was Edward READING. At the time of his first child's (Joseph or John) birth in 1828 his occupation was "boatman" Edward married Selina Clarridge on November 6 1826 at Holy Trinity Coventry. This man is the major "brick wall" in my research so if any one could help me, I can assure it will be appreciated. Thanks in advance and cheers, Peter Reading Victoria, Australia
