Sorry used the wrong 'reply'. -----Original Message----- From: Bob Hills [mailto:bobroots.bw@btinternet.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 17, 2013 20:53 To: 'Anne Thompson' Subject: RE: [SXP] Osborne Family Anne, You might want to look at the following (the parishes are all within a few miles of each other): 1801 James OSBORN chr 26 Jul at Up Waltham/Upwaltham (William & Susanna) (IGI) 1823 James ORSBURN married Mary WOODS 25 Aug at Duncton (IGI) (1851 census of James & Mary gives her pob as Duncton) 1826 James OSBORN chr 3 Sep at East Dean (James & Mary) (IGI) 1841 James OSBORN age 14 a woodcutter living East Dean parents Jas & Mary 1850 James OSBORN married Caroline SHERWIN 10 Aug at East Dean (IGI) (also Sep Q 1850 in FreeBMD) 1851 James & Caroline living as son-in-law & daughter with George Sherwin at East Dean The Caroline SHERWIN marriage fits (as per 1851 census), how confident are you re: the Caroline WELLS marriage?, if it is definitely WELLS then the above is probably on the wrong track unless Caroline's mother remarried, I could find no marriage of a James OSBORN to a Caroline WELLS.
