Hi,
I would like to find the baptism of Lucy Bird, born c1825 badby. Her father was Samuel bird born c1781 Badby. I think her mother was Sarah, but not sure, she died before the 1841 census. I have found Lucy on several censuses, including after her marriage, all confirming that she was born in Badby. I have also not been able to find the marriage of her father Samuel, I think to Sarah. The oldest child of Samuel (that I know of) was also Samuel born c1803, so I assume the marriage was around then as Lucy was born 22 years later - Mrs Bird ( if there was only one Mrs Bird), would have been getting older by then.
Thanks for any info at all,
Laura

just quickly looking for a marriage of a Samuel Bird In Northants, via Philimore Marriages
(they only cover these parishes in Northants, Castor, Dodford, Faxton, Glinton, Heyford, Northborough, Peakirk, Stoke Bruerne, Weston by Welland, Croughton, Everdon, Farthingstone, Harpole, Lamport, Northampton S Peters, Stowe ix Churches)
there are 7 altogether all in Everdon, but none to a Sarah.

Toni,
Thanks very much for looking those up for me. It looks like Everdon might have a few of his relatives even if he wasn't married there.
