I too am researching Joseph Holder in this area. But I got to a point where Joseph and Elizabeth were moving, and having children, in Rock, Pensax, Neen Savage (Shrops) and Redmarley D'Habitot - places within a very few miles of each other. I even had Joseph remarrying a Mary Pitt - (1829) - and having three more children.

The only problem was that Charlotte was the first child of the first marriage born in 1804, 3 years before the only Joseph/Elizabeth marriage I could find - the one you have. I couldn't find Elizabeth's early death either so knew I could be following a false lead. Were there two Joseph and Elizabeths in the same area?

My Joseph, I thought, was born in Rock in 1782, the son of John Holder and Hannah Knapper.

My grandfather was William Holder from Worcester. His father was William Holder from Claverley, Shropshire. His father was William Holder from Neen Savage, the son of Joseph and Elizabeth from........

There are two Joseph Holder deaths I'd like to get the certificates for, both from Martley, another village close by: Dec 1855 and Jun 1861.
