Hi

I have hit the brickwall of all brickwalls with one of my ancestors and was hoping someone might be able to help me.
I'm after the marriage of Benjamin Crooks (or Crookes) to Rose Ann Ryley. Ben was from Sheffield but served in the army and Rose was from Ireland. Their first child Mary was born in Woolwich in Kent in 1835 (Ben was stationed there). He was born in 1807 and Rose was born circa 1808 so they would have married sometime between 1825 and 1835. The problem i have is that in this period Ben served in England, Ireland and Jamiaca.
I can't find the marriage anywhere HELP!

Thankyou
Derek
