Sinead, like I said, Caroline is not on the Bristol Baptisms Index 1813-1837. Kate. |

Ruth is a widow in 1851, if that is any help. Perhaps if you can find her death registration and get her death certificate you will be lucky enough to find the informant is daughter Caroline Barber. I will see if I can find anything to do with those witnesses later but must get off the computer now! Of course, they could have been 'serial witnesses' anyway. Oh, I don't suppose that Caroline and Samuel named a daughter Ruth, did they? If they did it would strongly suggest her mother was Ruth. Kate. |

Hi could Elon/Elam be Rosina's brother thus making him Edwin brother-in -law even though Rosina is dead. Val |

Val, I think we already established that, but it looks as though the Edwin who married Rosina is not the Edwin that Sinead is looking for anyway. Kate. |

Sorry, Sinead, I couldn't find an obvious connection with either of the witnesses but there are a lot of Henry Nash / Naishes around. Kate. |
