John fenn Senior was born in 1801 in Coggesshell essex.
He married a lady called Sarah, and the Essex records office hold the following information about them.

This is not an advert. It is a very kind entry which took up some time:  I hope it is of interest to a lot of readers.

Last week I was at an annual conference for the Association of Personal Historians in St. Louis, Missouri.
