Staffordshire Lookup Requests / Re: Baptism - Sedgley All Saints

Many thanks for the info looks as though I will have to visit Dudley.

My Swindells are from Macclesfield area c1717 unlikely to be connected.

Well done you that moves us both on a generation. Still need to get baptisms for Thomas and brothers Joseph and Samuel. Looks as though only option on this is a trip to Stafford or an order from Familysearch followed by a trip to their local centre.

This is all very useful information and I thank you.

No I cannot be sure that Joseph and Samuel were brothers of Thomas Hinks. However Thomas and Susannah Walters(Hinks) are in Scotland at the time of the 1841 census, in fact several of their children were born there. Next door to them in the 1841 census is Ann Hinks aged 50 and Samuel Hinks aged 10. In 1851 census a Joseph Hinks who was born in Coseley has a widowed mother called Ann aged 62 and a brother Samuel aged 20 living with him (HO107/2025/421/15). These seem to be the same Ann and Samuel. I need to find their baptisms and the only option seems to visit Stafford Record Office!!

Thanks for the info but freereg coverage doesn't include the years that I am interested in. No doubt they will do so eventually.

Hi,

Does anyone know where I might obtain copies of the registers for 1800-1825? BMSGH don't seem to cover this period and I have been unable to find anywhere else on the net. I am looking for the baptism of Thomas Hinks b1813 and his brothers Joseph b1817 and Samuel b1821. I think his mother was called Ann and there will almost certainly be other siblings.

Any help would be gratefully received,

Brian

Flintshire / Re: Hanmer Parish records. Some destroyed by fire.

Hi,

This thread seems to have moved on a long way since I last looked.

In response to a question several emails ago I can't shed any light on the children of Thomas and Mary Lee, other than their second Mary.

Did I miss the connection with Maddocks? I found a marriage in 1790 of Thomas Lee and Mary Maddocks at Tilston which is not that far from Hanmer. Is this the same Maddocks family that has now appeared in the thread?

Hi William,

Not a lot to tell about Thomas Lee. My connection to him is through his daughter Mary who was baptised in 1800 at Hanmer and married Richard Pierce in 1825 at Overton.

To date I have the children of Thomas and Mary Lee as: Mary, Ester, Thomas, Jane, Mary, William and Anne.

The 1841 census has a Thomas and Mary Lee both aged c75 living in Tybroughton. I cannot find their marriage which presumably was in that part of the register destroyed.

Regards
Brian

Apparently the Family Search have a microfilm copy available of a list of marriages for the period 1563 to 1837. Have you tried this?

I have a Thomas Lee who I believe was married in Hanmer c1790 and have been unable to find as yet.

Regards

Thanks for the responses. The Devon/Cornwall article is well worth reading.
