    1. TEESON in Cambridge at St Andrews the Great and/or St Mary's the Great

    3. Hi All I am new to this area and suspect I am chasing after a wild goose, but nothing tried, nothing gained. On the IGI there is an entry for a marriage between Samuel TEESON and Agnes McKune on 28th October 1788 at St Mary's the Great, donated. There is also an entry , same date with a batch #, for St Andrews the Great,so I am assuming that the latter is the correct entry. I wonder if anyone on the list has access to the records of St Andrews who could kindly check that entry. The children for this couple appear on the IGI at St Mary's the Great, with a batch # so I am tempted to believe those entries to be correct, last child listed 1793. There is a 5 year gap and then another child appears to a Samuel and Frances in 1798. There is no death for Agnes listed on the IGI or marriage for Frances but I am wondering if either of the events would be in the records of either of the 2 churches. If so could some kind person check, if they have access. I gather that many of the records have not been filmed in Cambrdgeshire but there are CDs available. Normally I would buy the CDs but if the second wife Frances is not mine I have no connections to the county. Hopefully her surname would have been John. I have a marriage in 1811 in St Mary's Stoke Newington and 2 of the witnesses are a Frances and Priscila Teeson, hence the wild geese. The groom was Robert Hunt, elder brother to James Henry Leigh Hunt, the writer.Their family is bad enough to follow, but the brides family seems even worse though I have just gone off at a tangent and am keeping my fingers crossed. Happy hunting to all beth in a cold and dreary Toronto
