Is anyone familiar with the records for St Paul's, Shadwell in the 1700s? I just wondered how complete or reliable they are.
I have identified (on FindMyPast) three children born to John and Deborah Joyner 1852, 1856 and 1858. The last was Thomas Joyner an ancestor, but I can find no trace of a marriage for John and Deborah, nor her death. According to Thomas's baptism record John was a Ballastman. He was possibly born 1723 or 1734 in Shadwell but I don't have much to go on other than that - there seem to have been quite a few Joyners working in that trade.
Any thoughts much appreciated.

I guess you meant to say the children born to John and Deborah Joyner 1852, 1856 and 1858, were 1700s?
St Paul's, Shadwell – Ancestry
Records 1670 – 1812 most of the ones I have looked at are in very good order.
Registers in the early 1700s
Marriages in r. 1698-1753
Baptisms 1712- 1736
Burials 1707 - 1736
I could not find the marriage to Deborah on a general search,
I did find more baptisms for a John and Mary, I just wondered if Deborah was a second marriage.

On the other hand the earlier births I mentioned father a Ballastman, could be the parents of the John you seek?
