Edward Gatward was probably born around 1770 in Essex, and would have married Mary Unknown in the 1790’s. They had at least three children, Edward (b:1798), Roger (b:1799), and Samuel (b:1801) who were all baptised at St Andrew’s Church, in Great Yeldham, Essex. I have hit a brick wall with this couple and would be interested in any information that may tell me:

• When and where they married?
• Where and when Edward was born?
• Mary’s maiden name?
• Where and when Mary was born?
• When and where did Mary die? (Edward died in Castle Hedingham, 1837)

Any further information gratefully received.
