Hi

Hoping that someone might be able to help me.

Have been trying to find the marriage of my Great Great Grand Father Robert Kelsall to Ann Bowker . Their eldest son Christopher is born 1847 in Manchester.
Robert originates from Garstang but moved to Manchester. According to census Ann originates from Clapham, Yorkshire.

Looking forward to any thoughts .

Daryl

I don't think Robert and Ann were married, there's nothing coming up on freebmd or Lancashirebmd. Malyon is probably correct - she wasn't free to marry,
