Yvonne...I cannot locate any other than Amelia 1833 (ireland)..I cannot locate the 2 listed 1850 Walmer (is that a misprint..?) or a Henry G.
I would be inclined to:
Check to see if there was not a marriage in England (I cant find one) but thats not to say there wasn't one as it is Pre Civil Reg
Have you obtained Alex.Military Docs.? They may help...
I have tried variations of the Manning surname eg.Mannin etc. also Barber eg Barbour etc nothing showing...
Have you tried Scotland...?

Sorry!
Dublin is listed as birthplace on 1851 cencus.For Helen Barber .
Also Alexander was in the 83rd foot.
I'm looking through my notes and I have no idea now where I've seen
Amelia as Dublin . No It's deffinately just Ireland. Sorry for misleading.

Hmmmmmm. . I tried all the chlidren on military births and only Sarah was listed but they don't give maiden name that early. Someone very kindly came up with an irish one yesterday so they must be somewhere online....
Stumped again ! Oh well, thanks for your help Chris.

Me neither. But I seem to remember that the Irish BMD's aren't on line and you have to physically got to Dublin to access them. I would've thought it would be on the Military registers of marriage but ancestry hasn't got them yet. GR has a military records part but I'm not a full member so can't access it.

Hi Yvonne,

I have an Alexander Crickett Barber b 1808 Ipswich married to Helen Manning b 1809 Ireland. 1851 census has them living in Dover Castle as the Barrack Sergeant with Hellen (sic) and the following children: Amelia b 1833 Ireland, Eliza J b 1835 Canada, Sarah b 1840 Canada, James A b 1843 Leeds, Benjamin b 1846 Westminster, Susannah b 1848 Walmer & Henry G b 1850 Ireland. I assume this is the same. The surname Manning came from Ancestry.co.uk tree by john meredith Nuneaton, Warwickshire. Any help?
Regards
Chris
