Title: Seeking birth information prior to 1830s
Post by: Ozlibby on Monday 23 July 18 11:44 BST (UK)

Hi

Does anyone know how I can find the birth or baptism records for Nantwich, Wilmslow, Styal, Macclesfiled, Bollington areas prior to the 1830s?

I'm seeking a number of birth records from the region prior to this time. For example Joseph Henshall who married Susan Brown 21st Sept 1846, 1851 census says he was from Nantwich. Also seeking Susan's birth - by their ages on the 1851 (if correct) they were probably born around 1823.

thank you for any ideas or help

Libby

thanks again Rosie, just looking at that now - I'm a bit rusty on the searches, I've had a long break but just had a trip to the area and have come home inspired to find more!
