Has anyone any information on the whereabouts of the birth of Peter Peach who died aged 70 in 1803 in Maxey. I have so far been unable to find his birth, which I imagine is c1733 given his age at death.
-
I can see that he married Mary Ripping/Rippon? on 17th April 1762 also in Maxey.

Looking through the Northants Baptisms and Marriages Indexes CDs, I came across this possibility - and question. Was Peter Peach illegitimate?
A Peter PEACH/CARLESS was baptised at Oundle C of E on November 11th 1744. Parents: William Carless and Eleanor Peach. No indication in the record as to the boy's age at baptism.
A marriage took place on January 29th 1743.44 between William CARLESS and Eleanor PEACH also at Oundle C of E. Both parties were noted as "Sojourner in this parish" (ie temporary residents)
Nothing else close in this resource.

The images for the marriage of William and Eleanor and the baptism and marriage for Peter are available free on Ancestry this weekend.
