I note the marriage was by Banns Also a Witness was William Catleugh who could be a brother or possibly a father or a cousin. That might help when you find a possible baptism for Mary - I could not see any. The other witness was John Geo Leigh. What else do you know about the Skinners? Their children? Occupation etc. So they can be found in census? I could not see any likely James married to a Mary in 1851 census which should give clear ages and places born Looking at 1841 census I suppose this might be the couple as they are around St Geo area HO107; Piece 690; Book: 10; Civil Parish: Kensington; County: Middlesex; Enumeration District: 1; Folio: 8; Page: 11 James Skinner 50 born Ireland a Tailor Mary Skinner 35 born Middlesex Sarah Skinner 15 Agnes Skinner 11 William Skinner 6 James Skinner 4 Ron Lankshear -Sydney NSW (from London-Shepherds Bush/Chiswick) try my links http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lankshear/ On 2011-06-01 7:44 PM, David Lindsell wrote: >>> I have a marriage certificate number 680 of St Georges, Hanover Square, >>> >> dated the 8 September 1821 for the marriage of Mary Catleugh to James >>> >> Skinner.

Thank you Ron. The information you provided ties in with some information already supplied by another mailing list. My interest in the Skinners stems from Sarah's marriage to my 2 x great Grandfather, Charles Lindsell, in 1853. I am trying to find a birth or baptism date fro Sarah and a birth and death date for her parents, Mary and James.
