Title: Samuel Standish - Sheffield - 1791?
Post by: oppem on Monday 19 September 05 02:40 BST (UK)

Please does anyone have list of births / christening in Sheffield for abt. 1791.
Am looking for SAMUEL STANDISH born abt. 1791, parents probably JOSEPH AND MARY STANDISH.  Would love to find out more about this birth and any other siblings that Samuel might have had.
Many thanks to anyone who might be able to help with this - all information gratefully welcomed.  Carol...

Hi Carol

The IGI has a record of a Samuel Standish christened on 25 September 1791 at Cathedral Saint Peter, Sheffield.  His parents were Joseph Standish and Mary ??

I couldn't see any other children.

Best wishes

Thanks very much for Standish info.
They are still proving very illusive, but every bit of information is of help.

Hi Carol.

According to the baptism indexes for St Peters Sheffield (later cathedral) Josephs occupation is Blacksmith.
There is also another baptism for this couple. William 23 Aug 1795

There is a marriage in the indexes but no exact date is given it would have to be checked at the archives.
Joseph STANDISH and Sarah HATTERSLEY between Jan 1789 and Feb 1794.

Kind Regards
Tuppie

The marriage is in the IGI 4 times over  :) - They are all submissions by church members, but they all agree the date was 18 Oct 1790 (still needs checking in the original though ;) )
