Title: Mary Jane Wentworth 1817 baptism lookup please
Post by: Ghosthunter50 on Friday 14 July 23 17:43 BST (UK)
Hi
I'm looking for (Mary) Jane Wentworth baptism record she was born 3rd September 1817 (as family bible states). 1851 -1881 census' state Wandsworth but subsequent research has them living in Rotherhithe especially at death of father Henry Wentworth in 1826 of Manor Mills. Stated in Will.
Henry was an engineer/millwright, Jane's mother Jane Brooks was originally from Portsea where she & Henry married in 1805 & had the first 6 children baptised.

I hope this gives as much info needed

Thank you in advance.

Yes , sorry she is my great great great grandmother. She came to Wales sometime between 1841-1844. 1844 she married Mathew Downey my 3 x great Grandfather in Cathedine Breconshire.

In 1841 she is in Leamington Priors , Warwickshire

The family bible has her as Mary Jane but all census' she is just Jane.

She married just as Jane Wentworth

Does her 1844 marriage cert confirm her father was Henry?

Yes she married as just Jane Wentworth. I have looked under both names but can not find her baptism record.

First 2 childrens birth registrations show her maiden name as Wentworth but Harriott’s birth in 1849 shows Wadworth.  Subsequent children it’s shown as Wentworth so I think we can (hopefully) settle on Wentworth

Yes marriage certificate is Henry Wentworth & stated as engineer. on some of her siblings stated as Millwright.
