Look up please! North Moreton - John wing 1805
« on: Thursday 15 July 10 16:05 BST (UK) »
Hello there,

This is a tough one, John Wing North Moreton 1805 ish.  He is not to be confused with Jonathan Wing with very similar dates.   John Wing seems to be avoiding being found! The names of his children fit in very well with the Wing family of North Moreton, but I have never found a birth record for him.  Can anyone help?!

Thank you for reading!

Hi

I checked the register transcripts for North Moreton the only John Wing baptisms are in 1766 1822  1837 and 1854.  There is as you say a Jonathan in 1807.  What else do you know about your John Wing?

Hi Debbie,

thanks for looking.  My John Wing states in the Cenus that he was born in North Moreton Berks.  He married Elizabeth Holmes in Great Marlow and set up home there.  Their children were called Ann? Eliza 1830,  Robert 1832, lucy 1839, Elizabeth 1841, John 1844.

Do you think he could have been illigimate and his surname is his mothers maiden name?

Thats about all i know.

nobody has ever been able to find him!

thanks again.

Hmm I see what you mean - he is consistant in his birth place, throughout the census.  Have you checked the marriage entry to see if the witnesses offer any clues?

My father's family are Wings and they all came from North Moreton. I have Johns born in 1745,1776,1836 and a Jonathan in 1807. There must be a link,surely ? I'll check my full tree and get back to you.

Hi Liz, great to hear from a potential family member!  However my John Wing was born around 1806 and is NOT Jonathan 1807.  Nobody can find a birth for him!  Would be glad to hear all you have though when you have had a look at your tree!  Thanks for getting in touch! This is my fathers side also.
