Title: Parish Records in Wilmington, Kent
Post by: Robert on Wednesday 23 March 05 22:45 GMT (UK)

Can anyone tell me if  parish records are available for Wilmington after 1812. I am looking for a baptism record for Francis Stokes born 1814/1815 in Wilmington, his father was Thomas Stokes, a cabinet maker. Any records I can find stop at 1812. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Robert.

Hi Robert

Some later parish records for Wilmington have now been uploaded to medway ancestors:

Hi Casalguidi .

That's great! Thank you very much for this. I had a look at the site( a fantastic site for anyone researching ancestors in that area) and found the christening of Francis Stokes in 1814, and also his brother in 1818. I will now have a look through the marriages to see if their parents were married there.

Thanks again,
Robert

Hello Robert,

Francis Stokes was my Gt Gt Grandfather. His father was Thomas Stokes, mother was Hannah, Francis was married to Margaret Eliza Stokes.
Is this the same gentleman?

Sorry, I just realised that there was a reply to this message.

Yes it is the same Francis Stokes.
