Please would some kind person do me a look up for Naomi Thackray born 1832 Westoning parents William Thackray and Sarah. Much Appreciated. Thank you gladys1 :)

Being baptised in the Particular Baptist Church in Westoning does not necessarily mean the person was born there. People often travelled miles to their particular flavour non-conformist church. Here's the 1851, which I assume you haven't seen
HO107/1755 folio 320B
Dunstable St, Toddington
William Thackry head marr 57 currier b Middlesex Holborn?
Sarah Thackry wife 56 b Wellingborough Northants
John Thackry son unm 27 Currier b Eversholt Beds
Timothy Thackry son unm 24 currier b Eversholt
Caroline Thackry dau unm 20 b Eversholt
Naomi Thackry dau 18 b Eversholt
Rebecca Thackry dau 16 b Toddington
So in 1841 they should have been in Eversholt, but I can't see them. Eyes are crossing. I'll have another try tomorrow.

Hi David
You are right ;D he is not in the village or Husborne Crawley or Aspley Guise.
I should go down the county hopefully it won't be long now for Ancestry to put it on line.
Cheers Sandy

Hello Gladys
Some 4yrs ago you posted a query for a Census lookup of Naomi Thackray in Bedfordshire, and received the information quoted below. Yesterday I did a search on Rootschat for my Thackray family in Doddington and arrived at your post.
The family in the 1851 Census reply includes my 3.gtGrandparents and my 2.gtGrandparents. How can this be? .... well, the parents William and Sarah are my 3.greats, and their daughter Mary married William Haynes - the apprentice currier at the bottom of the list.
What I'm getting around to is .... do you have any information on the ancestors of either William Thackray or his wife Sarah nee Hensman?
Hope this reaches you.
John

Dear Gladys1
I've got a lot of stuff on the Thackrays. The Naomi you look for was in fact my great-grandmother!
Let me know if you want more
