O Mary thanks so much so I had the wrong Henry. I just could'nt find it on Ancestry or anything like it.

I have the marriage of Henry W to Annie Pricilla but not the death of Annie. Where did you find that his dad said she died in 1958 please?

I am now looking for Hannah and Benjamin's son Henry Nevill 1859 Lambourne Essex on the 1901 ccensus.

I have him with wife Alice on the 1891 with son Hnery 1890 Brixton Surrey.

On my tree I have put 1901 census and have this on my notes but I can't find the census again now.

Chris I have done so and printed both off so thank you so much for looking. Funny thing is I was tired last night and went to bed at 25 past one and lay there for ages before finerly dropping off. I usually go to bed about 2am.

I was so excited I drank my tea without taking my pill!!

Thank you once again you little treasure.

What wonderful friends I have on this site.

Cannot get to sleep tonight so here are my findings....

It was an interesting search

I looked at the West Ham parishes listed on https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/west%20ham.html
but had no luck so thought I would look a little deeper at the sub-districts and struck lucky!

Seax: D/P 601/1/15 (Image 170)
St John, Stratford, Essex.

Marriage: 14 June 1857
Benjamin Nevill (Signed). Full age. Labourer. Residing Stratford.
Father: James Nevill. Labourer.
Hannah Cousins (Signed). Full age. No occupation. Residing Stratford.
Father: William Cousins. Labourer.
Witnesses: William Cousins (Made his mark)
Sarah Cousins (Made her mark)

Thanks again one and all.

No Chris I did'nt have the Baptism of Hannah Rebecca Couzens so thanks for that. She was my Gt Gt Gran.

No I hav'nt ordered the cert yet. I had the date from LDS but I am not very good at looking on that site now they have changed it all. I liked it when you could put in parents names and up would come all their children.

I would love it if you could look at the other parishes for me, thank you.

Benjamin was a Hay Dealer and it seems it was passed down father to son and Bens son Benjamin carried it on.

Just had a thought......The marriage you quoted as 14 Jun 1857 West Ham, for Benjamin and Hannah, where did you get the exact date and place from?

If 'West Ham' is the registration district, and not the specific place for the marriage, then there are 7 other parishes to search.

If it is the Registration District then I can have a look at the other parishes, just let me know......Unless, of course, you have already ordered the certificate!

This is far from true for paid records, but you need to buy a sub - it costs 10/20/30/more GBP for 1day/1week/1month/longer - see:

I checked for the marriage of Benjamin and Hannah but it is not in the Parish Registers for West Ham. Maybe non conformist or a register office marriage? So it looks like you would have to buy the certificate.

This is the nearest I can get, if maybe she was being economical with her age...

Spellings certainly vary! :-(

And not that much on the way of free Essex parish records online.

Can't find Abraham's baptism c1782-86 North Weald.
