Census records indicate that this person was born in Ipswich in 1807. However perusal of the appropriate parish records revealed no trace of a baptism so he possibly could have originated from the Ipswich "area". Does anyone have any further information?
Thanks in anticipation - Martin

Some of the above churches were built in the Victorian time to cope with the
growing population of the county town. You will also see from the number of
fiche produced for the baptisms, banns, marriages and burials just how busy
(or indeed how quiet) a parish would have been.
You can check out these churches at www.suffolkchurches.co.uk that way you can also locate where they are in relation to one another.
With best regards, SM ...

Thanks for that SM - I have been down to my local "Mormons", ordered and perused the film records from all the Ipswich parishes, appropriate to the date mentioned, with no results. Hence my speculation that he may have originated in a surrounding parish.

Hi ,
My maternal ggg gf was a Joseph Pettet born 1807 in Ipswich. Married Elizabeth Buckle. Any link?

Hi
Sorry for the delayed reply, been off the forum for a while.
Yes, I think we are talking about the very same. My records indicate they were married on 18 Oct 1829 in the Old Church, St Pancras.
I have 9 children:- Edward (14 Sept 1831), Maria (22 May 1833), William Joseph (15 Feb 1835), Joseph (1837) [my line], Thomas (abt.1840), William (abt.1842), Alfred (abt.1844), Charles (abt.1848) and Henry Edward (24 Mar 1851).
I don’t have much on Elizabeth Buckle either; just that she was born about 1810 in Islington.
I guess we might be able to offer each other some information.

Hi,
Happened to be going into A******y so I had a look for Elizabeth Buckle 1810 Islington, Middlesex.
Found:
Elizabeth Buckle daug of Thomas and Elizabeth born 20 Jan 1811 and baptised 22 Sep 1811 at St James, Clerkenwell, Middlesex.
Two other children of Thomas and Elizabeth baptised same place as Elizabeth:
Mary Ann born 6 Feb 1805 & bap 4 Mar 1805.
William born 26 Feb 1809 & bap 13 Aug 1809.
Possibly a related family, children of William and Elizabeth Buckle:
Elizabeth bap 17 Feb 1805 at St Paul, Shadwell, Middlesex.
Sarah bap 1 Dec 1811 at St George in the East, Middlesex.
Just in case, there was an Elizabeth Buckley daug of Michael & Jude bap 8 Apr 1810 at St Mary, Whitechapel, Middlesex ;D
All the above from London, England Baptisms, Marriages & Burials 1538 - 1812.
Regards.
