Thankyou Ladyhawk, I think you may be right.  I thought it might be a village in Hawarden Parish but, couldn't find a match.  Your suggestion is a word I have not come across before, so I thank you so much for that and, John Maddocks would be deemed to be a 'foreigner', being from outside the Hawarden Parish, coming from Soughton in the parish of Northop.  another piece of the puzzle falls in to place.

Yes, Northop parish records seem to be more detailed than some, which brings me to my next conundrum.  I have found a burial record for what I am thinking may be Moses' father, Joannis, which you rightly say is Latin for John.  This record from Hawarden, shows a Johannes Maddocks, buried 22nd April 1718.  My query is what the last word is on the line (see attached snip).  I'm at a loss.

After many years searching, I think I have found Moses Maddocks' baptism!

The transcriptions of all the major sites have a Moses Wheelwright baptised in Northrop, 2nd Feb 1701.  His father is given as Joannis Maddocks and mother Sara.  They were from Soughton.

Looking at the actual register image, the line reads:

"Soughton, Moses fil Joannis Maddocks Wheelwright et Sara Baptised February 2nd 1701."

Looking at the page as a whole, the fathers' occupations follows their name, so It looks to me as though this is my Moses Maddocks.  What do you guys think?

That's very interesting...... Moses was buried 12 July 1742.  The Codicil......which I always thought was an attachment or change to a will made (in this case, by Moses) before the person's death....... is dated 12 August 1742.  The probate/grant is dated 11 January 1742-43.  Moses' wife is given as Alice Peters but, she didn't marry John Peters until 24 September 1743!

Roger, this is news indeed to me!  I had not known Alice was previously married or indeed, that she married again after Moses had died.  Is there a way I can get hold of a copy of the deed?

Regards
