Cheshire, FRODSHAM, Churchyard Inscriptions
« on: Monday 30 January 12 16:23 GMT (UK) »
I know this has had an airing some while ago, but I live some distance from Frodsham. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Churchyard Inscriptions for St Lawrence Church, Frodsham? I am looking for only one family surname in particular.

Any help or advice gratefully received.

Many thanks !

Hello Twdyr,

To my knowledge the MI's haven't been published - the only transcription I have ever seen is a hand written one held at Cheshire Records Office so you could be out of luck unless there are plans to publish them.  You could drop them an email to see if they know of any other copies...

Hello Jean,

Many thanks for your reply and helpful suggestion. The Cheshire Record Office seems a good starting point and I will drop them an email, as well as Cheshire FHS.

Thanks again for your interest.

Hi Shep
Thanks for your suggestions which I will follow up. I am looking for the JENKINS family from 1830's, in particular Robert Jenkins who died in 1867.

Many thanks for your advice

I can't see that the MI's have been filmed by the LDS (Shep's second link) - there is a film of the grave index and transcriptions though that would also be very useful.

The catalogue is searchable here: http://www.familysearch.org/eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.asp

If anyone knows any different please let me know.

Thanks,

Jean

Just for info, there are no JENKINS baptisms, marriages or burials prior to 1812 in St.Lawrence, Frodsham (I have a copy of the transcribed registers from 1558 - 1812).

Good Luck.

Hi Shep

Thanks for that, and it confirms my suspicions. Robert Jenkins was born in Guilden Sutton 1799, and moved to Frodsham (Manley) in the 1820's/30's, where he, and subsequent generations lived.

That is a useful piece of information - thank you !

Regards
Philip

I found this thread while looking for inormation on this church and wondered if anyone would be able to help with a look up?

I am looking for any inscription for the Baxter family:
Catherine Baxter (d. 1806)
Martha Baxter (d. 1815)
Robert Baxter (d. 1820)
and any other Baxters!

Thanks to anyone who can help.
