Hi
Could anyone help find any baptism records, buriel records for the Goddard family who lived in High Wycombe between 1814 and 1836.  I know of a George William Goddard born 1814 but can find no baptism and his sister Elizabeth Ann born 1816.

Hi Francis
Thanks for your help - the record for Elizabeth sounds like the information I have but I have her birth as 1816! Do you know if there are any MI's for All Saints?
Thanks again Geoff

I nipped into the RO today and checked on the Bucks FHS database and saw Elizabeth baptism in 1816 to William and Fanny. There were no burials on the FHS database which means nothing really as they only claim to have all the marriages to 1837. But there is a transcribed index list of all the burials at All Saints. (I was looking for someone else actually. So didn't check the Goddards) I will have a look when I go on Tuesday.

Hi Jo

Thanks for the help - George is the major brickwall in my family tree. I am trying to ind anything that will connect him to William and Fanny. He is listed in all the census returns as being born in High Wycombe 1814 and I know, from marriage certificate, that is father was a William but I have no real proof that he is linked to the family of William, Fanny, John and Elizabeth.  Incidently both John and George ended up in Wednesbury and both died there. William and Fanny were maried in Windsor in 1807.
Any help much appreciated

Hi again.

No luck I'm afraid for any births for George Goddard. There were a couple of burials in HW but they were early 20c and not George.

Hi Geoff,

Being as you are banging you head against that brickwall have you thought of asking the Buckinghamshire FHS for help? You never know, you may just find George somewhere else in the county :-\

There is a small fee I know but I found it well worth having searches done for my Hope family :D

Good Luck,

I asked the FHS today while they were there and they could not find a George Goddard in the time frame I'm afraid anywhere in Bucks. Mind you they do not boast of having all the baptisms for the whole County.
