Title: Stodgell in HAMBRIDGE, Somerset
Post by: tutor7 on Monday 27 May 19 15:57 BST (UK)
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone would be able to look up a baptism for me please in Hambridge?

The lady in question is either: Maud Caroline Stodgell OR Maud Beatrice Stodgell.
She was born between January and March 1887 in Hambridge.

Her parents are: Alfred William Stodgell and Lavinia.
Thank you very much indeed for any help that anyone may be able to give me.

Guessing the confusion is that she married and died as Maud Caroline?

Thank you both – yes I have the free BMD quarter and I agree that it appears that she was born under one middle name and married and died under another.

To find her baptism date would be great because lots of the Hambridge baptisms, which have been scanned, also include their birthdate.

If anyone does have access to the baptisms, I would greatly appreciate it. :)
Thank you very much

Have you tried to contact Sarah Hawkins, the OPC for Hambridge?  (Sorry, do not know how to give you the link. Perhaps someone will oblige)

I googled Sarah Hawkins and found the website. I have tried to send a message, but when I pressed submit, it just went to a blank page... So I am doubtful whether it actually works!

She was baptised as Maud Beatrice on 13 Mar 1887 at Hambridge. parents Alfred and Lavinia Stodgel. Abode Westport, Occupation Labourer. I'm afraid the birth date is not included.

Bless you David… Thank you so much for looking into this for me. I greatly appreciate it.

A shame that the birthdate is not included… Nevertheless it's good to have this.
Thanks again
