Can any one help me please.
Iam trying to pin down the parents of Sarah James who married William Sailwell on the 19th May 1824 at Newland.
I think it could possibly be Edward James and Eleanor Kear married 3rd November 1800 at Newland.
Wiliam Sailwell murdered Sarah at Ruspidge near Cinderford in May 1829 but at her inquest the coroner estimated her age at about 40
Edwards daughter Sarah was Baptised on the 26th December 1802 at Bream /Newland which would make her only 27 at her death .I can only find one child to this marriage which was Ann Baptised at Parkend 15th August 1826 If any one has any suggestions or Information on this couple.I would be very greatful
