Hi Wendy, Ann TIPPINS b. 1800 Ruardean, Glos d/o William TIPPINS b. 1775 Ruardean Don't be surprised, but many Ruardean people married either in Walford (where the Minister Lived at one time) or Hope Mansell, Hfd Are you on the Forest-of-Dean List, if not, well worth subscribing. ENG-GLOS-FOREST-DEAN-L-request@rootsweb.com Good Luck with your research....Hazel === original message === From: pbellw@messages.co.uk (P & W Bell) To: ENG-HEREFORD-L@rootsweb.com hello I have found the marriage on the IGI of James JENKINS and Ann TIPPINGS in Hope Mansell on 7th October 1823. Please does anyone have access to the Parish records for Hope Mansell who could look up this marriage for me and perhaps find out the names of the fathers of the bride & groom? Many thanks for any help Wendy
