Brackley Parish records Baptism GRIGSON

[mhrjh14]

Hello there, I am looking for the baptism of Adolphus Grigson, born Brackley c. 1823. Parents were Thomas William Grigson and Mary Ann. Any information about this, siblings, Mary-Ann's maiden name etc very gratefully received.
TIA

Hi Maggie 

Welcome to rootschat.

It could well be HAWKES as a Surname for Mary Ann.

Will P.M. more information in a moment.

Hi there, this looks like the same Adolphus Grigson that im looking into. Did he marry Catherine Burke ?
and did they also have a son named Adolphus ?

Cheers

Hi.

There is also a child named Frances who dies aged 10 and is
buried at the same Church on 05 Jun 1830.

There is no headstone in the Churchyard.

Hi Steven
 
Something kept bugging about this family...

I also realised you asked if Adolphus and Catherine had a son named Adolphus - the only birth I can find within the time-frame is, FreeBMD:
Q3 1853 Adolphus Wellington Grigson, Plymouth. V 5b, P 240.

Adolphus and Catherine were in cheshire/Lancashire in the early 1850's and there are Grigson's in Devon around that that time. Would require more research.

I can see Adophus up to 1851 and from 1871 (with Catherine from 1851). I can't find them in 1861. Though the 1871 census states, daughter, Frances 15y was b. Ireland and sons; Henry 12y and Charles 10y were b. Sri Lanka (Ceylon). He was obviously serving abroad, being a soldier. Of course they may have had a son, Adolphus and may have died.

I can't find a suitable birth for Thomas (Adolphus' father) either. Looking at some of the unsourced material it would appear to be about 1800 +/- and possibly not England. However, this would make him about 16y if he married in 1816, I can see why Sandy suggests a possible marriage only.

Hope there is something here to help.

Hi

Just checked the 1851 census for Thomas Grigson, b. abt. 1799 Bencoole, India, makes the marriage a little more acceptable.
