Hello
Seeking any information about Margaret Wildy who married Richard Hay 2 January 1723 in Ribbesford
Her Parents were Hicolas Wildy (1640 - 1699) and Margaret Chetwinn married on 26 June 1692 in Ribbesford
Nicholas paernts were William Wildye (d 1676) and Frances.
William Wildye's Father was William Wildy (d 1635)
The only information known about Richard Hay is that his brither was probably Robert Hay (d 1694) and his father was probablyalso named Richard
Graateful for any information
Best wishes

Hi
Margaret and Richard Hay married 1723 as you know.4 Children followed
Rebecca bapt 17.1.1728
Mary 26.12 1730
Thomas 6.2.1732 buried 17.10.1740 Dowles (a hamlet between Bewdley and Kidderminster)
Joseph 11.2.1734
It looks like they lived at Dowles and Richard was a malster.
Richard was buried there 23.4.1738.
His PCC Will allows for the sale of his tools and his debts to be paid. The residue to be given to his wife Margaret to bring up their children for life or until she remarries.
Then his cousins Richard and James Dorral yeoman of Rock will take over.
Margaret may have remarried a George Williams at St Helens Worcester 13.10.1742 by licence but having trouble finding the details.
A son John bapt 12.1.1745 at St Peters Worcester.
Daughter Rebecca marries at Worcester 3.11.1751 toa Thomas Taylor so it seems the family had moved to Worcester.
Richard Hay was baptised 21.4.1690 at Rock son of Richard and Sarah Hay nee Jones.
Marriage for parents 2.5.1685 at Rock.
Children beside Richard at Rock
Mary 16.2.1685 ,Ann 12.12.1687,Sarah 1.11.1692,John 25.2.1694 and perhaps a William 5.9.1697 (mother given as Mary).
It is Sarah's sister Ann Jones who married Edward Dorrall April 1691 and had a Richard Dorrall 8.4.1702 at Rock.
Other children Samuel 8.11.1696,Edward 21.3.1697 ,John 19.3.1699 and Thomas 2.4.1705.
No sign of a James I'm afraid.
It's possible that Sarah and Ann Jones are the daughters of Walter and Elizabet Jones miller at Rock.
I can't find a baptism for Sarah but Ann baptised 12.12.1665.
Siblings Mary 12.1.1664 ,Elizabeth 7.12.1671 ,and John and Elizabet Feb 1679.
As you can see there are gaps for a Sarah to be born.
I assume you already have details of the Wildie family considering how far back you've got.
Hope that helps at least a little bit.

Hello
Sorry for the lengthy delay in replying
Your information has been a great help in filling holes in this part of my tree. I have no geographical knowledge of the area nor have I your research expertise. I think I have gone as far as I can at the moment in this part of my tree. One question I have is do you have any information about the Bpt of Margaret Wildy ( about 1700-1705 I think)
You have been more than a little help you have been a great help
Many thanks indeed
Best wishes

If her Father died 1699 then you would think she would be born before that?
There are 2 bapts on F/S.Org to Nichlis Willdey, Margarett;
ALICE Willdey 18 January 1693 born 11 Jan 1693
MARY Willdy 29 September 1699 born 22 Sept 1699

Hi
Her parents married 1692 and Nicholas died 1699 .
So there is a limited period .It looks like from Trish's excellent work there was a gap 1693-1699 and Margaret would fit nicely into 1696.
But I just can't see her.
That said I'm not looking at the original parish records so there may be gaps.
