Hi Bircham,
I was not suggesting that she was actually born c 1806 only that is the age she was listed as in the 1841 Census. I realise that she was born c 1791 by other info on Census.

Children of THOMAS/SOPHIA Dunn;
William DUNN, Christened 03 November 1819
Henry DUNN Christened 06 January 1822
At St Swithin, Walcot, Somerset

Samuel Cross DUNN, 30 March 1817 (Fathers Occp Clothier) St Andrews, Wiveliscombe, Somerset

Neither Sophia or Hannah Cross baptised in Bath area in  the 1790s can be found on FreeREG. However that does not have complete coverage. The most relevant "hole" is Bathwick 1783-1812, there may be some non-conformist chapels as well. There is a transcription of Bathwick in Bath Library. I'll check it for you next time I'm there.

Thank you so much for all your effort. I'm not sure what relation Hannah Cross is to Sophia, only that she was a witness at her wedding in 1816, at Bath, St. James, possibly a cousin. Two of Sophia's son's were baptized at St. Swithin's, Walcot. Happy hunting and thank you once again. Bircham

Hi Bircham,

I went to the Library this morning but I'm afraid I drew a blank. There were only two Cross children baptised at Bathwick in the 1783-1812 register but they weren't the ones we wanted. Susanna in 1798 and John in 1800, both children of Richard and Ann. I've also looked at a couple of other transcripts of Bath parishes which are not covered by FreeREG, although they are available elsewhere online. No luck there either.  It looks like either Sophia was not baptised in Bath or she was  but the record has not survived. (It is quite possible the Bathwick records are incomplete. There are suspiciously few baptisms in the 1780s and perhaps still not the full quota in the earlier 1790s.)

I'm looking for children of John and Charlotte Russell (nee Weaver) - Isaac, Charles, George - according to the 1861 census they were born in Bath - the ages in 1861 census say the children are 24 years, 21 years, 18 years which makes their births about 1837, 1840, 1843 Are their old records for Bath available for this period 1837-1843. Any help would be greatly appreciated, regards Alison
