Hi Christina.
I will have to go back through all Poxon details and see where I seemed to go horribly wrong, must have been having a senior moment!! or something. Thanks for the help. Teresa

Marriages Dec 1857 (>99%)

This is the Thomas Poxon who married in Ashby De La Zouch in 1857. He married Martha Harper........

So Sarah Sherwin must have married George Smith.

I think you need one of the children's birth certs to verify Sarah's maiden name.

Choccy and Christina.
Sorry for delay again, this site keeps stopping me from answering, and have to sign in again and again!!! don't know what that's all about.
noticed Seth and Austin in 1861, did wonder about them and going to see if anything on IGI. As for marriage in 1857, everything else matched so I thought that it was the right one, not sure now!! Dont have birth certificates at all. Teresa

Are you sure the 1857 marriage is theirs?
