Title: Westminster MEEN lookups
Post by: Dissman on Wednesday 21 November 12 21:24 GMT (UK)
I am trying to confirm the birth/baptism details for Frances Mary MEEN. According to FamilySearch she was baptised 4th June 1780 at St Martin-in-the-Fields. Her parents are shown as Richard (MEEN) and Frances May - was the May one of her forenames or was it her maiden name ? Also were her parents married  at the church (circa 1775 I would guess) ?

Could someone possibly oblige me by doing a PR lookup for the above.

Hi there,
On London Lives there is a voting list for Richard Meen 1784 of Northumberland crt ,printer voting for Hood and Wray.
And an entry for Holden's London Directory in 1790.
A baptism at St James Westminster for an elder child Richard Meen born 14.11.1777 bapt 1.2.1778 to Richard and Frances Meen.
And Percy Selby Meen 9.3.1786 and Richard 27.5.1782 at St Martin's in the Fields.
Not got access to Westminster archives so sorry I can't look them up.
