Samuel Akeroad born c1729 St Chads - birth look up please
« on: Saturday 05 May 12 22:35 BST (UK) »
Hello, 

Looking for as much information as anyone can give me please on the above.  Samuel Akeroad married a Mary Lee at St Chad's, Rochdale Lancashire.  They had a son William Akeroad born 1754 baptised at St Chad's Rochdale, whose name changed over the years to William Arkwright.

I am struggling to find confirmation of Samuel's actual date of birth or his parents or indeed any siblings he may have had.  Can anyone help with this, or guide me how to find out more about St Chad's parish records online please?

Many thanks,
Julie

Thank you for this.  There appears to be some years missing from this online, typcially the years that would help me.
