Hello Listers I'm trying to find more on my SANDERS ancesters. G/grandfather David on the 1881 census was born at Sparkbrook, Wor. Wife Susan, son Alfred J. Dau Lizzie & Florence. On his marriage cert. 1858 his name is David SANDERS-HARDEMAN.His father also David Sanders-Hardeman a malt mill maker. There are many David Sanders & many David Hardeman. Nothing in the hyphened name & I can't seem to connect with the separate ones. After Susan died in 1882 David & 2 dau came to Australia. Alfred aged 21 stayed in England & I don't know what happened to him. Would any of you good people have any connections to these people please? Kind Regards Margaret Perth Westarn Australia

Carinya, Sparkbrook looks like it might be in Warwickshire according to IGI batches site. Perhaps you've been looking in the wrong place or it's right on the border of two counties. I think you need to look at earlier census records, 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871. Like me, you'll have to pay for these unless you can find a local FHS centre of Library that has Find My Past or Ancestry for free. However, Find My Past has a pay per view option where you could look them all up for about six UK pounds (A$12). You should try and find marriage and births of children on FreeBMD. David's birth should be there as well as it looks like it was after 1837. It looks like there was also another son William c1859. But I would need to pay to see the full data. Peter in Sydney

Hello Margaret, Sent some census results off list! There is a possibility that if the census names fit! then you MAY have the wrong marriage cert? I am also not sure about the trade description, of the father!
