Sorry about that I must have had a very senior moment! Of course you want a Hannah Woods.

The part about the baptisms on lan-opc only starting in 1813 is correct.

My apologises

Post by: myfair lady on Friday 23 March 12 23:26 GMT (UK)

thanks Radcliffe
I have tried it but like you it is not letting me on

Title: Re: Help brick wall in my Woods
Post by: Gibel on Saturday 24 March 12 09:06 GMT (UK)

I had a look on a2a (access to archives) last night but could see no Hannah Brown

To check out any 1808ish baptisms you're going to have to access the Wigan Parish Church records. Before 1813 they're not on lan-opc so you'll have to either see them at Wigan or you could ask the LDS (Mormon ) church family history centre at York to order in a copy for you.

Or you could put a look up request on here. I intend hopefully yo get to Wigan next week or the week after and will have a look and also for the other Wigan request (James Wilkinson)

he possibly has a son William 1820,
