Joseph Cindrey & Harriet Fisher (General)
Many thanks to all from this forum who have emailed me with their help.
Has anyone ever seen any evidence anywhere that Joseph and Harriett were married. I am trying to tie down whether or not my Great grandfather Joseph Cindrey is the same person registered at birth as Joseph Mountjoy Sindrey. My Grandfather birth certificate state a Joseph Cindrey as father and Harriet Fisher (daughter of Flower Fisher) as mother. But I have and can find no evidence of a marriage, therefore I have no name for the father of Joseph to help me verify the line. I know that Joseph was born in Dean and that he was a pit sinker and traveled all around the UK. I suspect that his father was Henry based purely on the order Joseph named his children. Firstly Henry after his father, Joseph after himself and William after I think a brother.
There seems to be a very strong tradition of handing names down on both sides of my family for many generations including the girls. My middle name is Henry by the way after Henry Flower. I have to say though I am grateful not to have ended up with the Flower name, or for that matter on my father side Columbus. That was a close shave!
Any help would be gratefully appreciated,
Many thanks
