Title: BAPTISM JAMES GOWMAN
Post by: liverpool5 on Monday 29 October 18 16:39 GMT (UK)

If anyone has access to Plymouth baptisms for the years 1794/95, I would be very grateful if they could find the baptism of James Gowman. I believe he was born in 1794. Thanks😊

Is that where he states he is born on 1851 Census?

Hi, Thanks for your interest. He is the chap who died in London 1852. He doesn't appear in any census, but from his seaman records and those in the seamans hospital, Plymouth is always given as his birth place☺

I think he may have been baptised James GORMAN at Plymouth St Andrew in 1795. See https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/DEV/Plymouth/StAndrew for availability of registers.
