Hi Kathym,
I am not asking for a lookup but if during your searches you could just keep an eye open for an Oswald Sturdy baptism circa 1710 and a marriage circa 1734, I would be extremely grateful.
Although the IGI shows some Sturdy families at Leeds I have no reason to think there is a Leeds connection, in fact I have no idea where he came from except it wasn't Nun Monkton.
Oswald had four children baptised in Nun Monkton, Oswald & Thomas both on 21 Jul 1736, Susannah 25 Jun 1739 & Elizabeth 21 Nov 1743. According to the researcher (paid) neither Oswald's marriage or baptism were found in Nun Monkton PRs. There was no mention of the mother's name in the baptism entries.
Two Sturdy burials were found in Nun Monkton, Thomas 25 Jul 1726 & Oswald 6 Mar 1742, both were Gardeners.
Susannah Sturdy is my ancestor, she married William Adams at Gt Waltham, Essex in 1766.
Thanks.
