Hi Fernvic

You could try searching the Durham Bishops' Transcripts free on     
http://www.rootschat.com/links/04c3/

click on Europe on the map, then on England Diocese of Durham Bishops' Transcripts, then on Durham, then Lanchester....    they're not indexed so need to be gone through page by page

Kind regards, Barbara

Hello,

William Batey & Ann Mclish were my 3 x gt grandparents. My Grandmother was a Batey from Spennymoor. I've been looking into the family for a while & would love to swap research if possible.
In answer to your search for the baptism of William - did you see the following entry from Esh Laude Roman catholic Church  dated  19th June1811 'William Bety (sic) . Born  3rd June 1811son of Thomas Bety (sic) & Isabel nee Harrison ( it must be him, the coincidence is too much as my 2 x gt grandfather was named George Harrison Batey.

Please get in touch

hi okkie, we are DEFINETLY CONNECTED my  2xgg grandparents are george harrison batey and ann batey (formerly ORD) both buried at spennymoor cem.
my line is from JOHN BATEY their son born 1878/79 spennymoor  married a jane hindmarch.
no i didn't see the entry for Esh Roman Catholic, were was it? okkie.  you know i had a feeling the name HARRISON in the middle of his name had a connection to somebody.
you know i think you are right it's our WILLIAM BATEY i am shocked he was catholic. i have only searched in the ANGLICAN faith.
george and ann got married at st. pauls  church spennymoor, october 1869.
okkie i heard a RAINE is connected to our family, what is the story abt. him?
i am so happy to have found someone with a connection to george and ann.
hope to hear from you soon.
regards
linda.

Have you followed the line of Ann Ord.  Her parents were John Ord and Margaret Fleetham.  I am descended from the elder brother of Margaret - Michael Fleetham.  I have colllated some information on the Batey line but would love to fill in the gaps.
