Find Ancestors

Again, thank you all very much for your prompt replies. More information from all of you helps to narrow down the mystery.
The only Joseph's I had were one born in Wasing Chr26/3/1732 to John Meads and Elizabeth Ivers, and could not find any more information on him!
The other Joseph born Hambleden 1787 is John's earlier brother. He married Charlotte Shaw in 1813, Wargave, Berks. (They had a William Joseph born 1817).
Another Joseph died within days of birth in 1812 in Medmenham, Bucks.

As you have mentioned before, other published information is not always correct!
Yes, I will contact the Bucks FHS again. I did not get a reply a few years ago!

Many thanks again to all of you.

Terence.

Have you tried the Bucks family history society. They have an extensive collection of parish records available to purchase and they will do searches for a small fee.

The marriage cert of George Meads to Emma Sayer shouid give fathers name and occupation

Another "Brick Wall" I'm afraid. Working on the close connection of the Meads and Sayer generations centered around Marlow, Bucks, I cannot find details of John Mead(s) b1796. He is the last (10th) child of Thomas and Hannah Meads.
Records show a marriage to Elizabeth Butler in Marlow, Bucks on 3rd February 1821. But I cannot find further information of this couple!!!
I have children George 1823 and Ann 1827 (both Mead(s), born in Marlow, but cannot prove them to John and Elizabeth, or wife's Elizabeth's details!
George Mead(s)1823 married Emma Sayer in Marlow on 9th August 1843.
Ann had close connections with George's last daughter Charlotte, where they lived together with various boarders in Eton Place, Marlow, over 3 Census' ending in 1901. They both never married and seem to have both died in 1909!
(There was another Elizabeth (Corby) in Marlow, St Peter's St. She was left with 3 children when her husband William was deported to Australia). I have all those details.
Can anyone help with more details of the above please?

Terence. South Australia.
