Title: Frances Ann Judd, baptised Bicknor 1846
Post by: Heatha on Thursday 11 May 17 21:40 BST (UK)
Does anybody have access to the parish records for Bicknor ? I would like to know the wording of the entry on 21st June 1846 for the baptism of Frances Ann Judd. I know that her mother was Mary but I would like to know if any mention on the child's status was mentioned. Mary's husband was transported but released in 1843. He was supposed to stay in Australia but might have worked his passage back to England. However, if the parish records state that she was 'base born' or illegitimate I could assume that Frances' father was not Mary's husband.

Thanks !

Mary had no husband with her in 1851

Thank you, CaroleW. Yes, I knew that but I'm trying to ascertain if the PRs of Bicknor give me a clue to Frances' father.

Hi

I have her in my tree with mother Mary Morgan (maiden name) only, the baptism only makes ref to the Mother's name and no status.  Robert Judd married Mary Morgan 1st Feb 1829 in Thurnham

Not sure if that helps at all
