I still want to know where Mebberson comes from? If his exact date of birth is known where did that come from?

Ah. You answered the question last night. So ...

"yes, Ive tried so hard for ages to find these people and im struggling i didnt know if fresh eyes and more experienced people may have been able to help."

meant "Yes the tree on Ancestry is mine" ....

And I guess after several requests we're still waiting to know where the "Mebberson" came from!

I'll go back to asking the 48 people with my grx4 grandparents in their tree at Ancestry who aren't related to them at all and haven't the sense to know that people in Cornwall in the 1700s didn't have sons in Tennessee to please remove them, until we get an answer to that one, I guess. ;)"M

Thats why I mentioned it earlier and the place of marriage matches this address and he is a farm labourer not a Blacksmith.

So the Mebberson one looks correct, it would of been nice for nike to have said where she got it from though

The 1832 marriage to Mebberson (is that extracted? I've given up on getting anything but down-for-maintenance messages from the IGI; how is anyone doing it??) is in Saint Margaret, Leicester, and I imagine that's what St Margaret With Bishops Fee, where "our" family was in 1841, is.

But yes, really really -- a child's birth certificate with a mother's name on it! could be ordered so easily as we dither.
