Thank you so much for looking up the info for me. After many months of searching I am 90% sure these are my Briggs. I have the 1851 census details already thanks to Ancestry and was hoping the 1841 would help confirm things a bit more and hopefully produce a son as the female line seems to change their date and place of birth often :). Would anyone be able to inform me where I could obtain baptism records online. I have tried family history etc and living in NZ cannot get to the centres to search and it is hard to know what area to ask for. I have found this site so helpful and the people so friendly you are doing a great service thanks heaps
