You state that Elizabeth was born in 1817 - where did you get that info?

Given that ages were rounded down on the 1841, this may be that Aaron's baptism:

Is Jane the married daughter of Aaron?

hi marie celeste
The marriage for john and elizabeth came direct from gloucester records office, they married on 23/1/1835
the only ref to census is 1841 for aaron beames which could be her father, tounge in cheek, thanks chris

Hello Christine, if the record you have is a parish entry where did you get it from?

Could you please confirm the date of the marriage?

Which census have you found them on, could you give us the details?

hI reg

thanks u for helping,
Yes u r right its a parish entry it gives john roberts bach, to elizabeth beams spinster,

further info that came from my cousin this morning goes as follows there is an aaron beames on the gotherington 1841census where he is 65yrs any further investigation would be great, jane may have been her sister.

I have a feeling that the 'cert' is a parish register entry - hence the absence of info about the fathers

Horsley and Wotton under Edge are both a considerable distance from Bishops Cleeve - just as a point of info

When was the marriage?

There is NO marriage on either freebmd or Glosbmd for the names you quote

Was her marriage to John Roberts her second marriage? She would have been around 40 years old if they married in 1857

Does it say widow on the marriage certificate and can you give her fathers name please

Are there no Fathers' names on the marriage certificate?

Just found another one

Eliza Beames 28 July 1816 Wotton under Edge, Gloucs dau of Charles and Hannah.

I suppose she could be either..

HiChristine,

as per IGI Elizabeth Beams 11 Aug 1816 Horsley, Gloucester dau of Thomas and Sarah. Do you not think this could be her???

Hi community
looking for elizabeth beames 1817 gloucestershire, she married john roberts at bishops cleeve, i have their marriage certificate, i cannot find her parents or siblings the witnesses on the cert were jane beams and john davis any help great, regards chris
