Title: Joseph & Theodosia Wright
Post by: corinthian on Sunday 20 June 10 08:48 BST (UK)

Hi,

I wonder if anyone could do a look-up for me. I am trying to trace the children of Joseph & Theodosia Wright. Have traced them via IGI but cannot find them in parish records via Ancestry to authenticate (St Clement Danes Westminster parish records do not appear to be included on Ancestry parish records). According to IGI they were all baptised in St Clement Danes. DOBs range from 1797 (Joseph) to 1814 (Amelia). Any info gratefully recieved.

Regards

Coreen

Hi Coreen,

Although baptised on 28 Oct 1822 the date of birth for Joseph looks like 19 March 1815.

Records for St Clement Danes, Westminster are not part of the digitisation project. Accordingly, if you require further checking a visit to the City of Westminster Archives will be required. However, the records in the IGI are extracted records and there is, therefore, a good prospect that they are correct.

Hi,

Thanks to Nigel & Ivan for replies. Looks like a visit to Westminster might be next move.
