I'm looking for the baptism and parents of Susan/Susannah PINKNEY/PINKNY born about 1759 probably in Ilketshall. I suspect her parents are John Pinkney and Elizabeth Watson who were baptising children in this area at that time.
Family trees on Ancestry include several children but there is a gap where Susannah would fit. To my knowledge the Ilketshall baptisms are not available online and I have exhausted all avenues available to me here in Australia.
If anyone has time to look for this baptisms I would be very grateful. Thank you.

I note that the only tree on Ancestry that mentions Susannah 1759, is a private tree, you could contact the owner for more details.
Some of the other trees refer to the burials of the John & Elizabeth you mention as being at Rumburgh, Suffolk. These burials can be seen on https://www.freereg.org.uk
If you are not certain that they are the parents of Susannah you could consider below.
Susanna Pinkney
Baptism Date: 22 Oct 1751
Baptism Place: Wissett, Suffolk, England
Father: Wm. Pinkney
Mother: Lydia Pinkney
Wissett, Suffolk is 4 miles South of Ilketshall St Andrew, Suffolk.

Thank you for the prompt reply Colin. I will follow up with the private Ancestry tree but I had no idea you could view what was in a private tree.

Just to clarify, this is all you will see other than the tree owner.
Susanna Pinkeney
Record information.
Birth 1759 Suffolk, England
Good Luck.

Thanks Colin. I suspect these records that only show the year of Susan's date of birth have estimated it from her death record rather than find her baptism record. [ie what I have done myself]
The search continues.... :)

I've had a look at all the Ilketshall parish transcripts at the records office today, and I saw the baptisms of children of John Pinkney (written as Pinkenny in the transcript) and Elizabeth Watson, and Susan/nah doesn't appear between Robert in 1757 and John in 1761 in any of the Ilketshall parishes.

Thank you Annes. I appreciate you taking the time to check this for me. I will look elsewhere for her parents now.
Apologies for the late acknowledgment as I have been away on holidays and have only just returned home.
Thanks again.
