Hummm... I'm in the US, and when I search these things do not come up - not at least in first 5,000 possible matches.  I have world ancestry too.   I don't understand why I won't automatically go to these wonderful cites you all mention, unless they are not on ancestry?  They are just buried from this side of the pond!  Thank you to any of you searching.  YOu parish record, birth, death, marriage, residence is all different than ours so it makes searching quite daunting.  Especially for those who don't know English geography.  REALLY APPRECIATE your help.  Would seem in these cities, careful and far-back records are kept, but accessing them from USA search is difficult.  //Thanks again my British friends! You are wonderful to spend moments of your short days to help me and I really want to say thanks and let you know it is very much appreciated!

Hi! I am in Dallas, Texas.  I do not know how to check back into parish records to follow these 2 families -- Baylis and Trimnell.  Both of the same parish.  have some marriage records from parish records,  but 2 dead lines.  Would appreciate suggestions on how to search records in England as you all (y'all as we say in Texas!) do it differently than we do!

Researching my great grandparents x5.  Mary Trimnell was born 1774 in Stratford Upon Avon.  She married May 29, 1798 Bejamin Baylis, Bachelor, and mary Trimnell, spinster both of this parish, by Banns, by James Davenport, Vicar.  in Pres of Henry Lathum, Wm. Edwards" from Warwick: Stratford upon Avon - Parish Registerss of Marriages, 1558-1812.

Believe Mary's father was John Trimnell, but the line goes cold with her.  Believe John was born before 1765 in Warwickshire, England.  (marriage records say "both of this parish") THIS LINE GOES COLD, CANNOT FIND JOHN TRIMNELL, but if from same Parish as Baylis?

So, we believe Benjamin's parents were John Baylis, born Sept 4, 1755, Birmingham, Warwickshire, and Elizabeth Smith.  Married: Holy Trinity, Stratford Upon Avon, Warwick, England, Oct. 17, 1774. 

John was son of James BAYLIS, baptized, Birmingham, St. Philip, Warwickshire, England, April 24, 1731, with father Alexander.   THIS LINE GOES COLD HERE.

Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you so much!!   Sherilee/Texasflower76021 on ancestry.com

Oh my goodness, I love you all!!!  : )   
Thank you so very much for pointing me in the right direction(s)!  Our basis for believing Thomas was father is simply a family history written up and published in US book, from a much later descendant.  Obviously, census and baptism records are "proof" vs. oral history written generations later. 
So,  Trish, you believe Benjamin's father was John Bayliss?  Interesting.  Based on baptism records at same church.  That was my grandfather's name, his father's name and my uncle's name.   They were rather fond of that, I guess!! 

Spendlove - thank you so much for other links!  I may spend all day researching this and so many other things to do!  No idea how to insert all these happy faces that are supposedly active above this screen, but they will not insert.  Otherwise, I'd have 5000 happy faces for you all!  Thank you so very very much.  Oh, I have to  call my mom!  : )

I live in Dallas, Texas, USA. My mom is a Bayliss and we can trace her family back to Benjamin Bayliss who married Mary Trimnell: 1798 29 MayAge: 21 (Many US sources say Mary Turnbull or Tramble or Trimble)
Holy Trinity,Stratford On Avon,Warwick,EnglandVicar, James Davenport29 May 1798 Benjamin Baylis, Bachelor, and Mary Trimnell, Spinster, both of this par., by Banns, by James Davenport, Vicar. In pres. of Henry Lathum, Wm Edmonds. Mariages. (Marriage) Warwick: Stratford On Avon - Parish Registers
Father of Benjamin we believe is Thomas.  :-\Thomas had 4 sons, and we know Benjamin came to US.  3 other sons: William, Samuel & Thomas.  Bayliss(Baylis) appears to be very common name in England, and even though I have subscription to World Ancestry.com it's just so common of a last name I'm lost in all of them.  They supposedly came from Stratford on Avon, and I posted marriage info for Benjamin, which would be my great grandfather x about 7 I think!  I believe Stratford on Avon is in Warwickshire, so assume the Thomas Bayliss I seek is from this area.  ::)  Would appreciate any further info anybody may have on this line!  I believe "Cornish" is also associated with this area, and that is such a coincidence as the family ended up in Cornish, New Hampshire (NE US).  Would appreciate any further info on this line as I believe I should be on this  (Warwickshire) Board. If I am mistaken, please forgive my yankee ignorance and please point me in the right direction : ).    Thank you most kindly!    texasflower76021
