I am looking for any leads to birth date place, parents names etc.

the information I have is Sophia Shermer married Joseph Crane at All Saints Church Wraxall on the 7 Aug. 1809 parish records show Abode for both as Wraxall.

Death 17 Jan 1848 Wraxall Age 65 Burial 23 Jan.1848 Wraxall

Any help to further the line of my 3 times great grandmother would be very much appreciated

A Sophia Shermer was baptised at Eastington & Alkerton in Gloucestershire on 15 March 1789. Parents Daniel and Elizabeth. (Source: FamilySearch and Findmypast.) Might be worth a look.

They are living together in Trowbridge in 1841 and in Bradford on Avon in 1861
