Thread: George Ford

Hiya, it's been a while since I requested help but I've hit my brick wall. I'm trying to find out about a George Ford who lived in Clayhanger in Devon. I know he was born c.1811 and that he married Sarah, but I don't know her maiden name. And I know that they had a daughter called Fanny.

Please could anyone help in locating George's parents? Trying to find them has been a nightmare!

Thanks.
