Have you looked at the IGI?

You ask if they had children - do you mean whether there were children other than Sarah?

Have you tried looking for the baptisms of Joseph and Lydia, in the same way that you looked for Sarah's?

There is a POSSIBLE baptism for Lydia on the IGI, which you would have to try to verify

l have done a search for both from 1725-1735 they are the only births for them names within that age range :-D

When you find a baptism, (Sarah's for example) look below the info to find a BATCH number

Click on the number, and a new window opens.

Put in the surname and the first names of the parents, in the appoprriate boxes, then click 'search'.

You get taken to the new site, with listings from the BATCH.

Scroll through till you find the records ( in this case they are on page 3)

Try it out with these people - so that you get the hang of doing it.

Good luck
