Hall

In Ancestry there is the request by Heather Purvis dated 14 Sep 2000
Looking for help on a Amelia Druce married to John Edmonds daughter was Catherine married to Isaac Elderfield in 1818 in Cuddesdon Oxford England

In the IGI - http://www.familysearch.com/ - there is
Isaac Elderfield Marriage: 02 Nov 1818 at Cuddesdon, Oxford, England to Catharine Edmonds
Oddly, there are no baptisms by the couple Isaac and Cath Elderfield

Another clue - Assisted British Immigrants
