Just to add to the confusion! There are some records for Tipton at Stafford but they don't have all of them. Whether these are copies of what Smethwick have or different I don't know. I do know Tipton is awkward to research as people only have to move a short distance and you end up in a different area and hence a different record office.

Well I am new to this game so hope that this message is in the right place.  My apologies if it is wrong and perhaps some kind soul will set me right.
I see many people are having trouble accessing old parish records but so far I haven't seen any mention of the Old Dudley Meeting House (I see the church is still in existence now). Living in furthest Cornwall it is difficult to visit Dudley archives.  Is there anything on line? I haven't found anything yet.
I am looking for baptism records of MINCHER baptisms going from Phoebe Mincher 1758 to Hannah (Nancy) 1764.
I have particular interest in John Mincher 1761 who we think (poor soul) was the John who was transported to America for stealing malt.
I should be happy to hear from anyone who has an interest in the Mincher family of BILSTON, TIPTON, WEDNESBURY.
Thanks. Do we sign off with our user name?-

Hiya Crooked Spire

Welcome to Rootschat!

There are quite a few Minchers listed on FreeREG http://www.freereg.org.uk/cgi/Search.pl and you could also try the Wolverhampton Archives site http://www.wolverhamptonhistory.org.uk/resources/familyhistory

Dear Willow X
Thanks for your reply.
That first web site
www.freereg.org.uk/cgi/Search.pl
is very good.  it is a new one for me.
As you say there are quite a few Minchers there. ......and I thought the name 'Mincher' was rare!
Thanks
