Hi,
Is there anyone who can help me locate parish records so I can find my line, where it would possibly show John Webb (m 1757 Staplehurst b- Linton) parents?:
I have a John WEBB who married an Ann FULLER 10 Oct 1757 in Staplehurst - by banns
I got this info from someone elses family tree. It has no source although I found the marriage index
East Kent Marriages Index (Canterbury archdeaconry 1754-1812) :
Grooms Parish: Linton
Marriage by banns
Parish of wedding: Staplehurst

They had a son - Henry born abt 1757 Staplehurst
He married Sarah CHEAVERS 19 Nov 1780 in Linton
It says:
Grooms Parish: Staplehurst
PArish of Wedding: Linton
It says Sarah was also of Linton

I am needing to find some record of the John Webb and Ann Fuller marriage that would show any information about johns parents John and Ann, Someones obviously got it from somewhere.

thanks so much
Julie

Look for baptisms at...........

You will not find parental info on marriage registers of that era

Have you contacted the person whose tree info you have taken?

Hi AnnCardiff,

Thanks for the lookups. I do have both those records. Mary Ann is their Daughter and that is my line. BUT, although John and Ann (Fuller) were married in Staplehurst, John is of the Parish, LINTON. Is this Linton, Cambridgeshire? or Linton, Kent? or is it the same place? This is the only place (Cambridgeshire) I am finding anything close to WEBBS in Linton.

I have found a John Webb, born 1737 Linton in the Cambridgeshire Baptisms showing parents as John and Sarah.

I dont know I can find anything to confirm this is my John Webb married 1757 (OF LINTON)

thanks
Julie

Unless the image actually says Linton, Cambs, its more likely to be Linton, Kent.

Don't forget that just because he was living in Linton, he was born (or baptised) there.

Added - a map of parishes in Kent can be found here

As you can see, Linton and Staplehurst aren't that far apart

I do believe he had a brother James.
Im trying to find out where he was born, Residence says Linton.
Perhaps he was born in Staplehurst. Just feel like Im on a wild goose chase trying to find his birth record!
