Looking at St Michael, Coventry, in the FamilySearch catalogue, it looks as though the early parish registers are in bad condition and we would need the Bishop's Transcripts for the images of various records.

lol I remember looking at that record about 1000 years ago this morning. At the time I thought it was too late for Jonathan and didn't care what his wife's forename was! Also, he wasn't a farmer!! However, now that we know his wife was Elizabeth and the date is OK, or even good, it looks a lot more promissing! The sig on the allegation is different to those in my earier post, but if pushed, it is closer to the two sigs I posted earlier that I think are the right man (1813 and 1828) just a less confident version and with Jonathan in full. I guess I should post the image.........
EDIT the 1804 entry is for a different JB (marrying Mary someone and no Cov connection)

Thanks for all this information. I am not quite as confused as I was before, but the picture is by no means clear.
It does appear that JB's first wife was also named Elizabeth. I don't have a subscription to ancestry.co.uk, and rely on their library edition, but here is another tree that partially confirms the details of Emily Jickling (nee Bray), but also muddies the water. https://www.ancestrylibrary.com/fami...=successSource I also have one more factoid that ight provide a clue: a note by my father written in about 1967 says that Charles and Elizabeth had an aunt - Jonathan's sister, who married a Colonel Barrow, of Bath, and that the Brays of Coventry made frequent visits to Bath to visit them. |

I think JB married once in 1803. Hs wife died in 1819. She was the mother of all his children.
His parents were another JB and Ann nee Jee who married in 1768.

re the sister in Bath (FMP image):
Taunton Courier, and Western Advertiser 24 December 1834 Deaths On the 22nd instant, in the sixtieth year of her age, Sarah, the beloved wife of Lieut. Colonel Barrow, late of the 69th Regiment , - a kind and affectionate wife and mother. So, born about 1774 and named in her mother's will as a minor so that looks good.
