Hi All
Wendy from Australia here, I'm new to the list.
If anybody has anything on Mary Ann GOOSE, born 9 Dec 1821 in Wisbech -
daughter of Cornelius Goose.
She married Uriah SPEECHLEY in 1842 and their first child William was born
in April 1843 in Wisbech. Not sure where other children born - Harriett
(1845), Alfred (1847) and Sarah Ann (1850).
They migrated to Australia in 1852.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanx,
Wendy
Hello Listers
Could anyone tell me exactly where "Wisbech Fen" is? I have an ancestor who
consistently gives this as her place of birth all through the census
returns, but I don't know which parish to search for her baptism.
Many thanks,
