Hi, I'm researching relative Henry Ridley, born Horne Surrey 1719. We know he married Alice, born c 1736, but we are having no luck finding her maiden name, or when they were married.
Any help appreciated.
Regards Maureen

Could the marriage have taken place in a non-conformist church?

If you know when his children were born, you must have some sort of timescale for any marriage

EDIT

Where did you get Alice's birth year info? It seems improbable, in view of the fact that she gave birth in 1747 (according to the tree on familysearch) Or was it a 'typo' on your part?
