Hi can anyone help i am looking for the parents/siblings of henrietta bird. I have her marriage in 1853 to George Smith in Melford Suffolk. The cert says of full age so est DOB 1832ish. The 1871 Census has her and george with their family still in Melford and this was where she was living when they got married. The marriage cert has unknown listed for her father. But she had a mother so who was she??? Any help would be great |

Lesley You are amazing where did you find this? I have been looking at the marriage cert all morning trying to read the names of the witnesses I could make out Benjamin but couldn't read the surname except it ended in PP or FF . So you must be right. |
