Thomas Gammage 1795
« on: Tuesday 01 May 12 07:14 BST (UK) »
Trying to find exact birth information and parents for Thomas Gammage who was possibly born in Northamptonshire in 1795.  The only info I have is that his wife's name is possibly Elizabeth and they had a child -- Christian (Christiana) Gammage, born Sept 1820 in Hardingstone.  Any information is appreciated.

HI Dave.

Welcome to Rootschat.  :)

The only marriage that seems to fit on the Northants Marriage Indexes.

Thomas GAMMAGE otp Elizabeth WHITSEY otp

The child Christian was baptised as you rightly say in Hardingstone
on 15th Oct 1820.

Thank you Sandy!  Did the baptism record for Christian happen to mention Thomas and Elizabeth as the parents?  I am trying to create that link if they are the correct parents. 

Best,

Dave

Excellent!  Were there any witnesses recorded on the marriage record of Thomas and Elizabeth?  If so, what were the names?  My next goal is to find parents of Thomas and Elizabeth which means I need to also begin looking at baptismal records.  I just need to get a direction of names to look for.  :)

I can not help at the moment with witnesses Dave as I was quoting
from a index.

The baptism of Elizabeth is on the N.B. Indexes.

The baptism of Thomas is a bit harder to work out.

The only ones I can see are in Brixworth.

Ask Alan Clarke on my links below as he does free look ups
on some of his and Marilyn's work.

Hi Dave.

I looked at the original Parish Record today and the witnesses
did not help.  :(

Sandy,

I appreciate you taking your time to look into my inquiry.  Knowing you have spent many hours helping so many of us, I want to extend my personal gratitude. 

When marriage witnesses are listed on the record is the standard format to list the woman's maiden surname or her married surname, or is there a standard format they used in record keeping?

Best,

Dave
