COMPLETED-Warminster parish records look up-GILES

[Blakeswife]

There seem to be.  All the following have parents with the same names and baptised in the same church.

William 24 Sep 1735
Israel 16 Apr 1747
William 21 Aug 1749
Joseph  6 Jan 1752
Jane 17 Sep 1755
Michael 23 Apr 1758

The first William may belong to a different family since there is 9 years before Benjamin's birth/baptism.

There is a marriage for William Giles to Hannah Humphries in Warminster 2 Jun 1735.

Perhaps - if it is the same couple - they did not live in Warminster for a few years.

I would be interested in any information about why and where did this couple go when "not in Warminster for a few years".  I have recently come across them in my family tree and am unable to find any parents for Hannah.  Grateful for any tips.

Welcome to RootsChat 

I'm afraid I don't know if they did live elsewhere - it was a suggestion to account for the gap between the baptisms of the first William and Benjamin in the Warminster registers.

Hannah might have been born outside Wiltshire and her family moved to the area in her childhood.  My Warminster ancestors arrived from Shepton Mallet and Frome.
