Penny,THANK YOU so very much,Im over the moon,just one more question can you tell me what F H L film means please, once again Many Thanks Kathleen

Hi Jennifer Nothing at all on William Moon, plenty of them but not with the right parents. Sorry Penny

Hi Dawn Nothing on the Covell/Carnell marriage, but as you've got the date etc, why don't you apply for the marriage certificate? It will give you the fathers' names and occupations - another step backwards!! Penny

Katrina Looked on both the VRI and the 1851 census, but nothing I'm afraid. Penny

Hi Penny, MANY THANKS for your speedy reply. Yes, I know your totally right, I just thourght I'd try abit of pot luck before ordering the certificate. Shall start saving my pennies (I've just ordered some programs and shall have to wait abit cos hubbi will not be too impressed, if I ask for more funds!?!?). Thanks again and I wish you loads of luck with your own researching. Regards, Dawn.

Hi Penny, Thanks for the look-up . In response to your question~John HAWKER was born in Somerset, possibly Combe St Nicholas Chard, to James and Mary Hawker around 1815. Mary Ann Harris was born in Devon ? Britford according to 1841 census. James HAWKER born Wadeford c. 1786, SOM, Mary born Chaffcombe, Som. c1780 Marion

Hi Margaret Only one marriage recorded for a James Brownlow, but this was in Ireland in 1860. Sorry Penny
