Hi AnnCardiff,
Thank you for the parents of William Beddow and Emma Unknown!
Thanks Jonesey, but I have tried to find the marriage, but I'm obviously missing something!
Thanks for looking for me though.

William was a Blacksmith. I was wondering if he was married before.

Hi Mel Fairy Godmother,
Thank you for getting back to me.
I do have most of the family, but was missing some of the later children, so thanks for that!

Your first option is to find out Emma's maiden name.

Use www.freebmd.org.uk to look for the marriage. It is a free site.

Hi Folks!
I have a William Beddow b. c1849 Shropshire, who married an Emma Unknown b. c1850 Wolverhampton Staffordshire. Their children were Robert Beddow 1872 Wolverhampton Staffs, William Beddow 1873 Wolverhampton Staffs, John Edward Beddow1875 Wolverhampton Staffs, and others.
My problem is that in looking for ancestors, there are so many places that could hold the information, but need it to be the right one and not mess up my tree.
Any help you could offer would be really great.
Many thanks
Jayne
