Thanks for all your help. The Trenfields that you have found are the "rich" Trenfields which, unfortunately are not mine! I think it's a case of going back to the parish records and trying to find all the Trenfields I can and try and match them up. |

What a shame, dont seem to be around on the 1841 do they. Ill have a better look tomorrow. Theres a few possible rellies in Bredon and then a large clutch with that name in Gloucestershire. |

Hi, not got time to search at mo, but a quick look on the 1881 brought up this guy - what do you reckon? Williams son? If your William was also a wealthy farmer, have you checked for Wills. |

Does it say the couple were OTP? In which case you could have possibly looked backwards through the register for their baptisms. Did it not even say of full age? |

I've tried looking on the 1841 and 51 census but there is no records for a William and Sarah that live together. If one died before this date then I'm stuffed! |

As the records on Family Search are copied from the parish records which you have looked at, the site wouldn't give you anymore info. |

Muppet! Yes, the marriage was in October 1807! Sarah Nicholls could be a relative, but without further info I don't know how to find that out. I would guess that she was related to the bride but I don't know how to find that out. I've looked on Family Search and the marriage isn't even showing on there! How do you overcome this? |

Do you mean the marriage was Oct 1807? I have also had this problem with early parish records, doesnt seem to give the info until official registration. Sarah Nicholls must be a witness, the f is an old fashioned s, could she be a relative? |

I've been to the history centre in Worcestershire and found a marriage that I had been looking for. Problem now is how can I find out estimate birth years for both bride and groom and how do you found out who there parents are? The birth was recorded October 1807 in Bredon, Worcestershire. I have looked at the parish record and the only information that was on it was bride and grooms name, date and the person who performed the ceremony! |
