Hi When I first join this list, I ask for help in searching for Stone and Philips in Yaxley, Huntingdonshire, now I am going to re-ask, adding another surname, Balls. I am looking for parents, siblings, and ancesters of Edward B. Stone, and his wife, Mary Elizabeth Philips in Yaxley, Huntingdonshire. They had at least two children before moving to Nova Scotia, Canada. Mary Elizabeth Philips was born 27 September 1824 in Yaxley, daughter of Thomas and Mary (unknown) Philips. Baptisms on October 23rd, 1824. For Edward Stone, his father is list on his marriage entry as Edward Stone, mother unknown. However, in the marriage record from the Family History Centre, it states that on Sept 20, 1849. Mary Phil(l)ips, spinster, born in Yaxley, father - Thomas Phil(l)ips, Labourer. Married Edward BALLS, bachelor, Labourer, Yaxley, father - Edward Stone, labourer. Witness - Thomas Seals, and Sarah Baker. For the Baptisms of his two children, their last name is also BALLS. Edward - Feb 9, 1851, and Robert - Dec 26, 1852, children of Edward and Mary BALLS. After arrived in Nova Scotia, they want by the surname of STONE. And Edward's middle name became Bauld. Any help in finding information about Edward's parents or siblings, whether STONE or BALLS; Mary's parents or siblings; and ancesters of both, will be appreciated. I will like to find out why they want by BALLS and then STONE. Edward and Mary were my great great grandparents. Thanks Kathryn
