Thanks dee-jay and "oh dear". I seemed to have latched onto a name rather than a person. Back to the drawing board. Many thanks for the info tho, even negative is useful. Best wishes

Hi Sandy

I can't thank you enough for all this additional information. It has really helped fill out what was a very blank person profile.

Thank you again and a very Happy Christmas.

Does some kind soul have access to the Baptism records of Wibarston or a transcript?

I am searching for the record of baptism of Samuel SCOTT b abt 1826 in Wilbarston. He was the son of Thomas, a farmer, but I have no other detail.

I would also like to know the date of marriage of Thomas and his wife if at all possible.

Thank you once again in advance.

Thanks DOB7

When I come to confirming dates, people and places I always use certificates or other primary sources. For initial exploration, I prefer transcriptions or registers which kind people make available to others on line.

As I live in Canada, one certificate can take as much as a month to reach me. The method I use enables me to make much faster progress and to order certificates in batches of 10 which also has the advantage of saving on postage. The certificates are then checked against reported data and any discrepancy rectified before the certificates are scanned and filed.

First of all, thank you so much to this group which has helped me with my 'brick walls'!

And now . . . I am looking for the baptism record of Margaret PEARCE b abt 1815. She married Richard HOLMAN in Mar 1848 in "Barnstable"  but I have no other information about her.

If anyone can help, I would be most grateful.

Thank you
Neil
