Title: Sarah Swinnerton
Post by: swinno on Friday 31 March 23 10:56 BST (UK)
Hello,

I am looking for the baptism for a Sarah Swinnerton born 1811/12 Adbaston Staffordshire.
Sarah is thought to be the second born to Charles Swinnerton and Elizabeth Furber. Possibly
baptized in a none conformist as C of E shows nothing.
Sarah went on to marry a John Grosvenor at Adbaston in 1829.

thanks,
bswinno

siblings to Sarah are

William bp1811 Adbaston.
Mary Ann bp 7 July 1818.Cheswardine
Thomas abt 1817
Elizabeth bp 24 Nov 1822 Cheswardine

There's a Knighton, Shropshire on the Welsh border. There's also Knighton, a hamlet, part of the parish of Adbaston, Staffordshire.

I've been chasing Sarah, bap 25 Nov 1811, Eccleshall for a marriage or burial to rule out of the equation.

One of the witnesses in the 1829 marriage is a Thomas Swinnerton.

Colin we looked at the Sarah born 1811 to John and Ann but found them not to be the correct Sarah.
