Still not sure who Robert Hooper married though ? James Hooper who married Elizabeth Nightingale parents were: Robert Hooper and Mary. Robert parents were: John Hooper and Mary Hobbs.

WOW!!! Thanks very much for that Yvonne. I do hope I have the correct parents for my James Hooper, going by the info above, it seems very much like they are. So it's: John Hooper and Mary Hobbs. You have done very well Yvonne, seeing this info for the first time, I will have to check to see what that surname: Hobbs means now. :-D ;-) <3

Graham,

Is Elizabeth related to Mary Ann Nightingall who married Robert Legge in your other thread - looking for Robert's parents?

I can find births for Mary Ann to Thomas and Hannah 03/03/1816 and for Elizabeth 09/02/1813

Doesn't help find either groom's parents though (sorry)

When did he marry ?

A slight correction to the above: James Hooper was born abt 1811 in Shoreditch.

I've been trying for a while to find the parents of James Hooper born abt 1816 in Shoreditch, he married Elizabeth Nightingale. Can't find them, anyone with a connection, or someone who could help out there... thanks.
