TAPLIN family Basildon

[shad]

Does anyone have any information on the TAPLIN family of Basildon, Berkshire. Emily Taplin b1852 was my gt gt grandmother and married John COOK. They had 6 children.
I would like to know who her parents and siblings were.
Please advise the best (most economical) way of buying credits, who should I use, ie CensusOnline or Ancestry.co.uk. I live in NZ so need to convert £ to $NZ.

There is another Birth Reg showing at Jun 1852 Bradfield 2c 210, the image for this one is incorrect and I suspect has been incorrectly transcribed.

Dont purchase cert through Ancestry as it is much more expensive.

I always order my BMD Certificates via FreeBMD, it has a link to order from the GRO.
Cost of each Certificate for me is approx $15 Australian.
Always check for yourself the BMD Reference information, we can make mistakes.

Hi shad
I presume you have 1881/1891/1901 census entries for John and Emily and children. If not someone will post for you

This is probably John in 1861, under Kook

1861 Census
Village
Leckhamstead, Berkshire

George KOOK, 27, mar, carter, born Hampstead, Berkshire
Ann, 25, wife, carters wife, East Ilsley
JOHN, 6, son, scholar, East Ilsley
Thomas, 5, son, scholar, born East Ilsley, Berkshire
Hannah, 3, daug, born East Ilsley

[trish1120]

Obviously what I have and will post has to be confirmed by marriage cert. info.

SORRY IF YOU ALREADY HAVE THIS but i went of on a tangent with the Cooks.

1871 census John Cook aged 16, ag lab, born East Ilsley, is boarding with 2 other labs  in Hampstead Norris, Berks.
RG10/1270/27/32

Interestingly next door is;
John Cook, 68, mar, ag lab, born Hampstead Norris, Berks
Ann Cook, 71, wife, born Minchali?, Berks
Possible grandparents?
