Hi Gillian,
  I Havn`t  received any dates from you it has gone astray or I could have erased it from my lists along with all the rubbish that I get, here is my E-maill Adress ( dave.e.h@btopenworld,com) it is a lot easier that way, you may be able to tell that I am not very good with computers.
 Judys birthdate is January 17th 1943 she was born in Keyingham, East Yorkshire.
 
   Regards Dave

hi
hope this helps. i have not looked through all the replys you have recieved as i write this. the 4 finches you mention according to the parish records were all base born.
john finch ch.9 july 1837 of sarah base born d.o.b. 22 may 1836
george finch 9 july 1837 of sarah base born d.o.b 31 jan 1827
mary finch 9 july 1837(need to re check dates) of elizabeth base born d.o.b 28 june 1833(need to recheck this date)
mary finch ch. jan 6 1833 of charles +elizabeth late labon d.o.b 18 apr 1830
william finch 4 nov 1832 son of sarah base born
mary ann feb 20 1831 of mary finch

these are the only ones i noted around that time
in the igi there is a charles which i belive is sarahs base born child but for some reason i missed him out it needs to be checked






 elizabeth labon had married william alexander in 1821 and i belive william was exported to australia with her brother george and james peachy. charles and elizabeth were my 4xggpand daughter  mary my 3rd ggp. so far i have not discovered charles finches birth. nor have i found a marriage date for charles and elizabeth most likly because she was still married to william.


so there was a sarah and a charles in bacton with children born about the same time i expect they were brother and sister but have not proved this yet. unfourtuntly sarah children entrys do not give the name of a father but if the minister has put base born then 1 he either knew for sure she was a finch by birth which is most likly as the parish of her birth would be responsible for paying any poor relife and if she had gone to another parish to have children out of wed lock she would have found the parish council most uncharitable and they would have tried to move her back to were she come from. 2 of course she could have said my name is sarah finch when it was not in an adopted parish but there would have been no parish relife so she had to have been kept by some one. there for i think sarah was a finch by birth but as i have found neither of charles or sarahs christening this is only assumption.

the reason for the census recording a charles sr and a charles jr is very simple . bacton is a small area and the census taker was simply just discribing the difence between the two. if i am right and charles and sarah were brother and sister then charles jr would have been charles sr nephew!
 we all have come across two people with the same name i am sure just think if you had to write down details then do some more notes on some other people remember something you needed to check would it not have been eaiser to have added a way of how to remember which is which. be it verbale or in note form we often refer to people in this sort of way when you talk about them 'oh you know little john , not big john' .i know i have done it.
