Title: lookup SKEATE in Wiltshire
Post by: freya on Monday 26 November 07 14:35 GMT (UK)
Would someone have a look at parish registers for John Ralph Skeate (or surname variants) in Wiltshire  BUT  I have his marriage (in Winchester) and, soon after, the birth of his son (John Ralph) in Salisbury in  1809.

What I really want is his BIRTH which should be about 1779 according to the marriage record AND may well be outside Salisbury as I think Salisbury itself has been checked on another lookup.
Thanks
Freya

Thanks Alli and Sue. John Ralphe senior is about a elusive as my ggggrandfather. Maybe that is an indication that they are related!! (thats really where I was hoping to get). The family in the 1841 appears to be john Ralph and his sons. I am not sure whether some or all of the rest of the folk listed are completely unrelated. I will try checking those that are not listed as servants. Cheers Freya

You probably have this.. but IGI had these, although not marked as extracted...
to parents John Ralph Skeate & Ann
Emily SKEATE b. Jan.16 1824 
Christened Feb.11 1824 St Edmunds, Salisbury, Wiltshire

Sarah Anne SKEATE b. Dec. 31 1812      
Christened Mar.15 1813 St Edmunds, Salisbury, Wiltshire

so wife Anne Willis was giving birth into the next decade... ;D and the older fellows may be hers as well
