Michael,

If you would like me to go to the library locally to see if there are filmed parish records, which might help, I'm happy to do that.

Perhaps you could detail what in particular you'd like checked.

Thank you everyone.
Perhaps if I follow up on his wife Anne it might throw up some clues.
Up to now there are no findings for her.
Regards.
Michael.

What was Abraham's occupation?

That might help locate them later.

Do you know the names of the witnesses at their marriage?

Lots of people ended up in London for one reason or another. There is this death:-

Have you tried family search site

Married 1812 its very unlikely they would have children that would make birth registration from1837

Can anyone complete the final piece of my jigsaw!
It seems that he married an Anne Scantlebury in Hythe Kent 21st Feb 1812.
After that I cannot trace them.
I am descended from his older brother Isaac born 1773.
Would love to know what happened as regards to any children and where they ended up.
Regards.
Michael. :-) :-) :-) :-)
