Hi All
Can anyone shed some light on (H)Ester Larner born c1795-1804
In the 1851 census she says she comes from Fieldtown is this Leafield?
She married my Ancetor Francis Norris
Thanks, Borri

Thank you both!
Every bit of info helps, I'm at work now but I will look at that link when I get home.
I have seen Hester/Esters name spelt as Lardner on one occaission.
When she married Francis Norris (transcribed as Morris) she was living in St Giles and I know she had a baby at that time.
After the wedding they moved to Wolvercote (Woolvercott) Francis' home village and a week or so before the baptism of their first child together they baptsed Esters first born, why not do them together? any idea.
Off the top of my head I can't remember Esters first childs name but after the baptism she disappears.
Thanks again, got to do some work, it's a curse.

Hello there, I think we share the same ancestor. Francis & Hester are my Great(x4) Grandparents. Do you know much about Francis' parents, I know they are Francis & Ann, married in Wolvercote in 1787, but beyond that the trail goes very cold. Would be good to make contact anyway, Kind Regards, Steve.

Francis & Hester's children were: Louisa (1827-1839), Sarah (1825), James (1829-1832), William (1831-1831), Lucy (1832-1839), Charlotte (1834), Charles (1836), Elizabeth (1839), Harriet (1841-1841). I hope this helps, I have lots of other detail if interested.

Hi Steve
I have just sent you a reply to Francis Norris.
Would your surname begin with a G by any chance?
We seem to be the only 2 people in England searching this branch of Norris'
If you are who I think you are did I email you Christopher Norris' birth certificate? I received it a few weeks ago, let me know (Pete) Borri.
