Hannah Report 18 May 2015 20:39

Ok so here is what i know:

My great great grandmother was born Lydia Barker and her parents were Charles Barker and Elizabeth Ann Denny.

Elizabeth's birth cert states her mother as Elizabeth Denny (formerly Hutchinson previously Lorimer!) and her father as James Marshall Denny (occupation - printer). A census record, though i now can't find it, states that James was born in Scotland but no specifics.

I can't find a marriage record for him and Elizabeth, i can't find baptism records for either of them! I'm at a loss. Please help!!

Elizabeth Ann's first marriage:

Name: Elizabeth Ann Hutchinson
Gender: Female
Marriage Date: 9 Mar 1834
Marriage Place: Christ Church Greyfriars Newgate,London,London,England

Looking at the Banns they both appear to be from St Leonard Foster and neither previously married.

wow what an amazing response in such a short time and yes sorry i forgot dates!!

Elizabeth Ann Denny (daughter of James & Elizabeth Denny) was born June 1845 in Blackfriars (City of London).

It's possible James was born in 1802 in Scotland and Elizabeth Lorimer in 1813 in Middlesex

ScotlandsPeople doesn't show any birth for a James Marshall Denny.

There's only one James Denny (or variant spelling) born 1798 -1804, but it doesn't seem likely that it's him:
