Suffolk Lookup Requests / William Metcalfe
« on: Wednesday 09 December 20 20:16 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for help pinning down the correct baptism for one of my ancestors - William Metcalfe.
George Metcalfe was born 1824 Wickhambrook son of William Metcalfe and Maria.
I'm trying to locate William's baptism. He was born ~ 1790 and died 1868 in Wickhambrook
From the 1851 and 1861 census his birth place is listed as Stradishall. If this is correct  a potential baptism for a William Medcalf would be 04/11/1792 son of Thomas and Mary
However from the Suffolk marriage CD it appears from his marriage to Maria Suttle in 1815 in Chedburgh he is listed from Denston.
If this is correct a potential baptism for a William Medcalf would be 18/05/1794 son of Henry and Susan
Does anybody have access to the Chedburgh marriage records to check this, or any clues how to resolve this?
I have also posted on the Suffolk Family History society page so hopefully somebody may be able to shed further light on this conundrum

I have the 1936 certificate and it's definitely not her. But she must have died before 1937 as she is not listed with Amos.

The marriage certificate has arrived and shows Mary Ann Hinton marrying Amos John Taylor 31/01/1925 in Croydon. Mary's father listed as James Matthews so it's definitely the right person.
Now just to find out when she died and where she was after James' death in 1921 and the marriage in 1925. Death, sometime after the 1935 Surrey Electoral Record and the 1937 Surrey Electoral Record

Still awaiting the marriage certificate, but the 1936 death is not my ancestor

Thank you to all of you for taking the time for looking at this for me.
I hadn't realised at the time of posting that Mary had registered James' death as it has been a long time since i have been able to access my paper copies as they were in storage.
Whilst Hinton is not a common surname it is very easy to mis-transcribe.
Since my original post, and again thanks for all the hints, I've managed to place Charles Reuben Hinton and Amos Taylor at Tollsworth Cottages 1922-1925
I'll also look at the other children to see if Mary resided with them during that period and order a marriage certificate for her to check her father was Mathews
many thanks again

Many thanks for all the responses, I'll have to check back through my information whether he did indeed have the middle name Henry. I do have a copy of his sons James' marriage certificate and father is definitely listed as James Henry Hinton
Taking another look at James' death certificate it does appear that Mary was still very much alive as she was the informant and present at the time.
