Title: Bedworth Parish Records 1800
Post by: Bricam on Wednesday 02 January 08 21:53 GMT (UK)

I'm trying  to find the record of the birth/christening of DAVID HARVEY in BEDWORTH 1801 to get his parentage.
Can anybody please help who has access to the parish records for this time?

I know that David Harvey was a silkweaver as he appears on the census of 1851 in Bethnal Green with his wife Martha Harvey (nee Fletcher).They were married in Holborn, London in 1819 and this branch of the Harvey's became the first Londoners in my tree.
I am hopeful of finding out more about the Warwickshire roots of the Harvey's but am stuck for now.
Hope somebody out there has access to the parish records and can help.
Thanks :)
Iain

There are plenty of Harveys in Bedworth but no David.He may have been christened under another name.What are his children called.
