WICKENDEN, William b. abt. 1802 married a Jane Lawless on 5 March, 1825 in Saint Giles without Cripplegate, London, England. It is my belief that this William POSSIBLY had the following siblings. Joseph WICKENDEN born Abt. 1797 and died in 1874. He may of married a Elizabeth FAIRCLOUGH in 1825 at Igham, England. Next is a Mary WICKENDEN born Abt. 1797 and possibly died in March, 1800. Next is Maria WICKENDEN born Abt. 1805 and died in 1875. She may have married a Henry UPTON on 19 August, 1822 at Leigh, Kent, England. Finally, I have a Moses WICKENDEN born in Abt. 1807 and possibly died in 1873. He may of married a Elizabeth SEGAR on 15 May, 1831 at Leigh, Kent, England. All of the above is GUESS WORK but the timeframe suits me. Are any of the above people in your Family Research. Please tell me one way or the other so that I can eliminate them from my Family.
