Hi Andy, Sarah Perry was born in Bagillt, Flints, if that is any use to you?? Her parents were George Perry and Jane Edwards. Keith in N.Z.

Hi Keith, Perhaps we have a connection after all. My Lees(e) line in Biddulph then Tunstall includes a Samuel Lees(e) born in 1827/8 who married (possibly 15/12/1845) an Ann Lees from Bagillt in Flint. This lady has a birth date which is just outside the range you quote below (probably 1829 per the censuses). Her marriage to Samuel was possibly the marriage of Samuel Lee and Ann Lees on 15/12/1845 - where her father is shown as Ralph. The mother of Samuels children is Ann Lees - per their birth certificates. Do you have any more detail on your Ann, daughter of Ralph and Sarah ?

She had siblings John, Eliza, Catherine, Ann, Ralph & Sarah, all born between 1833 and 1844. Ralph was shown as a Potter in 1851, in Watergate Street, Tunstall. He was a Beerseller in the 1851 Staffs Gazetteer, still in Watergate Street. In 1881 he was a widower living with son John & his wife Sarah, having a grocers shop and beerhouse at 37 marsh street Hanley.
