Oh I forgot to say the date 1820 has just been placed between Michael and Margaret, so I just assumed it was the marriage date, but do not know for sure

Jonesy,
There are a few trees an Ancestry with this family.
One in particular has full direct descendancy on son Michael Webster b 1845.
The owner has 3 trees on ANC so I cannot tell if he/she is a direct descendant of the family.

Edit:
There are other trees owned by other people,but follow this same line via different children born to this Michael Webster.

Hi to any person researching the Webster Family tree,

I purchased a book at a carboot sale this week called the R A F in action and in the back it seems to have a family tree written out. it is headed Webster family tree. And says the Webster family motto is - Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we may die,
I will list some of the names and maybe it will ring a bell with somebody
Michael Webster married to Margaret Ashly (1820?)
children - Bob, Michael, Billy, Harry, Edward, Ellen & Margaret. It also mentions one ancestor Harry was married to Polly Pickering, Daughter of Colonel Pickering famous racehorse keeper (Their words not mine)
Some of the family members seem to have been in the R A F in the war - Keith, Tony and a Sybil in the ATS, if any of this info means anything to you, or any one you know, please send me a message and I can send you a copy of the pages, or the book if you wish!
regards
