Have you found them in any censuses? That might find their children.
I see you have birth dates, pres from parish records as pre 1837, did the source not tell you the parents?

Are you trying to go forwards or back?

Hi,
Sorry I'm looking for their parents I have all the census copies for this family 1841 to 1901. the #s are my PC references.
Church records are iffy and I think they were chapel people, these records are a problem, don't exist or some ones treasure trove. The couple below William & Eliza married in Ockbrook and they and their decendants lived in Spondon to date. Seem to have come to a halt with this one.

Regards
Roger

Do you already have a note of christenings and other children for William & Elizabeth from IGI?

There ia an extracted christening for an Elizabeth Swingler, parents Willm. Swingler & Ann, 01 Nov 1812 Ockbrook, Derby, and other children with probable same parents.

Yes I have a mix of Church / IGI information for all the children.
Thanks davidrigg3 for the lead on the Christening.

Below is IGI of  GGGFather . on the census 1841/51 there’s no entry for his birth place.

William Wheatley #118.   
    Male       
            
 Event(s):
    Birth:    1814     Of, Spondon, Derby, England

    Christening:       
    Death:    08 OCT 1858 


The on going problem is They Married in Ockbrook lived in Spondon (three miles away) but I can’t find a family in either of the villages with a reference to a William birth in or around 1814 in any of the church or other source records I have managed to locate. There is a large and interwoven family of Wheatleys in the area.
I just continue the search in anticipation.

Regards

Roger
