Hi,
I'd be very grateful if someone could do a lookup on the christening of Elizabeth Blake in Longford (Derbyshire) parish registers (C of E).
IGI record christening 20th August 1793 in Longford, and father as William Blake.
It would be very useful if someone could verify this and note if any further information is recorded.
Thanks for your help,
Mike

Hi Carol,
Thanks very much for that. That fits with the information I have. Witness Martha Phillips was sister of Elizabeth, and the dates of their children's birth fit with the other info that I have.
The time you've taken to do this work is much appreciated.
If you know of anyone with a connection to this family I am happy to share my research.
Regards
Mike

Hi Mike
I'm not connected to that family, but do have Longford records if you want me to check anything else for you.
