Sarah Bridges ...

[Kit]

late Brown formerly Williams.

This is the mother's details on a birth certificate.

I'm just clarifying she was born Sarah Williams, married Mr Brown and then married John Bridges?

John and Sarah are the parents of my Joseph Bridges born 1843 in Whitechapel.

I've posted about them before but was wondering if someone could look (again) for a marriage for John and Sarah for me. New records come online all the time and I might have missed something.

This is the 1841 census details Class: HO107; Piece 691; Book: 8; Civil Parish: Bethnal Green; County: Middlesex; Enumeration District: 15; Folio: 9; Page: 9.

John died in 1847 at Tower Hamlets. I have Sarah on census' until 1871, she possibly died Sarah Brydges in 1874 in Poplar London (from freeBMD).

Thanks for looking again

Yes, it means she was born Williams and then married a Brown. I can't find a marriage to John Bridges at the moment. Have you already worked out who the parents are for each of the other children on the 1841 census?

[Kit]

Sarah b 1831, Frederick b 1834, Francis b 1837, Elizabeth b 1840 are all children of John and Sarah as I either have a baptism or they are on the 1851 census. Richard b abt 1827 disappears after 1841. I assume he is their child but have no evidence.

Child Sarah marries a Mr Watts but I can not find a marriage or first name and he died between the 1861-1871 census and she then married Charles Bower.

If I disappear I've gone to bed. I'm exhausted. I'm not ignoring you

When you say "I either have a baptism or they are on the 1851 census", which ones do you have baptisms for, please?

[Kit]

Francis and Elizabeth have baptisms, the others say son or daughter on the 1851 census.

Elizabeth was baptised with her younger brother Joseph, in 1845. The baptism says abode Charlotte St which matches Joseph's birth certificate.

In 1851 Sarah Snr is living in Colchester St, which is the same street husband died in in 1847.

So Sarah jr and Frederick might not be John's children?

On another thread we have a Richard Brown marrying Sarah Williams in Feb 1827 .....erm.....somewhere in London. But we couldn't find baps for Richard jr or Sarah to fit with that.

I don't know whether Toni knows what happened to Richard (the one aged 14 in 1841)?

In post #3 above she says he disappeared after 1841, so I suppose not.
