Quelch Family - Weedon (Bec)???

[Infobunny]

Hi Margaret,

I'm so sure we can arrange all sorts of things!

I'm sending you a message on the private network.  It will appear in your email box like normal but just a different type of title.  My uncle lives in Auckland so maybe he's close to you.....

Cheers
Bunny

Far out!  I'm looking all over the place for Cecilia and Arthur but can't seem to find anything.  I can find an Arthur Joseph McKeon death registration for 1929 but no Cecilia!

Grr....where are they?

Have to dig rabbit warren...

Cheers
Bunny

WILLIAM Quelch, Christened 20 March 1808, St Peter/Paul Weedon Bec to JOHN/ELIZTH
Siblings;
ANN 03 May 1801
THOMAS 15 May 1803, Buried 27 July 1817, Age 14
JAMES 25 August 1805
JOHN and SMITH 27 October 1810 (Twins)
MARY 11 June 1815, Fathers Occp Shoemaker
CAROLINE 14 Jan 1818
HANNAH 09 May 1824, Father Shoemaker
(All on FreeREG)
Strangly SMITH is down as Buried 08 Oct 1810 and it must be mistranscribed and should possibly be 28 Oct.

So at least confirms William Parents

Cant find a Marriage in Northamptonshire for John/Elizabeth.
The Burials I quoted earlier for a John and Elizabeth are probably them also.
As 1841 Census is missing we cant find John who died 1848 on it!

JOHN Quelch Baptised 05 May 1779, Weedon, to THOMAS/ANN

MARRIAGE;
Thomas QUELCH
Ann BURBIDGE
Both of Farthingstone Parish
16 Nov 1778, St Mary The Virgin, Farthingstone, Northamptonshire

Burial I found earlier for a THOMAS Quelch 1836 age 81 is probably him, so born c 1755!

 Good to see rellies finding each other on the forum.

Although Freebmd is a brilliant source, Alan Clarke and
Marilyn Pontings Northants Index have some more information
noted. They are a God send for us in the County.

The other baptisms are as noted.

Mary & Caroline's baptism say Lower Weedon.

There was Upper and Lower parts of the village.

Also Caroline bap may have been 01 Jan 1818

John's daughter Ann seems to have a child out of wedlock
Elizth on the 26 Nov 1820

Dear Trish and Sandy,

You guys are BRILLIANT!!!!!  Oh that's SO awesome to have so much new information on the family!!

HUGE bunny hugs for you both!!  Oh wow!

I've never come across that Northants index - you're so lucky! And now me and my family are too!!

Yay, yay!

Oof! (just fell over my feet).  Now I have heaps of hole filling to do (not all dug by me) so I can figure out what's left.

Cheers
Bunny

Hi, I know this is now such an old thread, but if those who have posted on here can still read this I would just like to say a huge thank you for posting this information, as it's contributed greatly to my own family tree, particularly to adding Thomas Quelch born 1775 and all of his children. I had only reached as far as his son John (twin of Smith) who is my gggggfather.

It looks like several of here are distantly related...! Greetings to New Zealand! I can provide information regarding John's family tree leading down to the present, please contact me or reply here if interested.

Thanks!!
